Abstract

In a referendum held on 23 June 2016, the majority of British citizens chose to leave the European Union. This finally happened on 1 January 2021. The newly-coined term „Brexit“ (British exit) is used to denote the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union. This article attempts to show the situation in Britain two years after Brexit was finally completed. It describes some of the changes invoked by Brexit in the lives of the British people. The supporters of Brexit claimed that the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages. However, clearly, this is not the case. Specifically, the problems arising after Brexit included, for instance, the end of freedom to work and live between the UK and the EU, a rise in the rate of inflation, the relationship between northern Ireland ( part of the UK) and the Republic of Ireland, etc. Therefore, all the indications are if a referendum was held now, the majority of voters would be against leaving Europe.
