    Brexit benefits

    No not the same old moan...

    I want to know any real benefit that any individual on here has got as a direct result of brexit.
    Not 'sovrinty', or 'cOntROl are boArdErS', or any other fluff. A real personal benefit that you as an individual has received....

    It's been a good few months now and we're seven years on from the vote.

    See You Next Tuesday

    One very noticeable benefit of Brexit is that you never hear loud pro-Brexit conversations any more.

      A stupendously high turnover in Great British Pounds Sterling from overseas sales. Thanks, Brexit!

      ( And the Brexit subforum is a strong second. )

        I got an EU passport that costs less than a quarter of the price of a UK one.
        England's greatest sailor since Nelson lost the armada.

            I haven't noticed any changes, good or bad.

              To be fair, a forum full of disguised employees (and now temp employees) is probably not the place to ask.

              Maybe ask on a business forum where people deal with the real world. If you deal in goods, either inwards or outwards to/from UK/EU, you'll have run into difficulties along the way. A lot of companies have opened premises somewhere in the EU to mitigate the issues of customs (as their goods movement now becomes intra company), so a lot of the earlier problems are being eased but at a cost.
              When freedom comes along, don't PISH in the water supply.....

                speak for yourself

                I want to know of any real personal benefits. I already know the tulipstorm it's caused for business. I'm looking for a positive.

                    If you sell paper or printer toner to companies trading with parts of the UK, then your business will be booming due to the requirements of Boris' Protocol that he denies having had anything to do with.
