(Serious) The UK has left the European Union, if you voted Brexit, why? How will it benefit you personally?

The EU would need substantial changes made and implemented before I’d even consider wanting to join again. There’s too many basic problems that shouldn’t be problems, and there’s no solution to fixing it.

Inequality is one problem, member states face inequality between one another, and it’s ridiculous. An example could be the UK and France.

One product, a bread roll could be packaged the same, branded the same, sold as the same price but the product sold in France could have inferior ingredients and that’s that.

If I visit France and buy the same packaged, branded product, I want the same as I get at home, or I want a law put in place that bans this deceptive practice. This isn’t specifically about ‘bread’ it’s more to do with meat, and the quality and quantity in products. Some citizens cross the border to shop because the quality is higher, but yet the price is similar.

Considering the environment is the topic of controversy, I’m sure Europeans increasing their carbon footprint just to buy the same ‘bread’, but at the quality enjoyed by a European neighbour, makes perfect sense to anyone. This shouldn’t be a thing, yet to correct it, would be slow, expensive and full of loopholes to be exploited.

The EU has done good things, but progress is non existent and it’s changed beyond it’s own capabilities from where it started.

Example, only one charging cable type for electronic devices, why stop there? Surely wall outlets and plug adapters are an issue?
