It’s been just over a week since the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, but the political and economic effects are felt increasingly across the continent, causing some British increasingly express their repentance, while citizens and leaders of the other EU countries not fail to show their anger at the Brexit.
Now “we must draw the consequences”, said yesterday a categorical François Hollande, who insisted that “the decision is taken, and it can not be delayed or canceled “. After meeting with British Prime Minister David Cameron, regardless of the acts for the centenary of the Battle of the Somme, the French President added that UK citizens have “begun to understand” the advantages that involves being in the EU and many supporters Brexit are rethinking their positions.
repentance has been seen both in the media and in social networks, which already emerged “Bregret” concept (linking words . Britain + Regret)
“I’m shocked that we vote to leave,. I never thought would happen I did not think my vote out to be important, because I was convinced we were going to stay,” he told the BBC British called Adam. Mandy Suthi a student who chose to leave the EU, recognized the channel ITV that if he could vote again, “would for permanence”, “simply because the reality is hitting.”
The “Bregret” it has also grown as they become evident some false promises about what was supposed to happen after the Brexit.
“the feeling is that there was a campaign of lies, which were used to convince people that investments would be made and that immigration would drop, among other things, “he told” El Mercurio “Dave Toule (28), a Briton who for two months living in Torino (Italy).
One of the main campaign promises of Brexit -publicitada even in the streets was that London would send 350 million pounds weekly to the EU and, instead, at least 100 million would go to the public health system . But enough that the Brexit triumph for the leader of the UK Independence Party UKIP Nigel Farage, said that he had never offered that and that it was a “mistake”.
Another proposal of the campaign to leave the block was that a system of migration control with degrees of acceptance to the different nationalities that would prevent the arrival of any European would be established. However, the leaders of the other EU countries made it clear that Britain will not have free access to the EU single market goes-where 44% of the British ones exports if it does not accept the free movement of European citizens. “We never said that a radical cut would occur, we just want control measures,” said Eurosceptic MP Daniel Hannan, according to the newspaper El País.
“The way the campaign Brexit presented things was like wanting to choose more or less migration “, he told this newspaper David Dunn, an analyst at the University of Birmingham. Even a citizen petition to the British Parliament for UK hold a second referendum on remaining in the EU exceeded on Thursday four million signatures.
“There have been many people expressing surprise about the consequences of their vote for the Brexit. the day after the results, Google reported that many Britons asked on the site ‘what is the European Union?’ “said Dunn.
But beyond disappointment the alleged lies that used campaigns, the effects already hit Europeans are also painful and for the entire block. The resignation of Cameron as head of government, the turmoil in financial markets and the fall of the pound to 1985 levels were only the first jolts.
“England is sunk in the political, monetary level, constitutional and economic, “said Tuesday the Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, current president of the EU.
with him agrees Naranee Ruthra-Rajan (37), a London-daughter of immigrants who ceilaneses- He is dedicated to education. “To say that there is now a crisis in Britain do not feel like an exaggeration”. “I’m very angry that people have fallen into the very obvious lies of the campaign for Brexit. I voted for permanence, and I feel very depressed. To be honest, my initial reaction was not on the fact step out of the EU, although I am very worried about that. I’m more concerned about the rise of racism in the course of the campaign. “
the encontrones among political leaders after the referendum results strongly divided the ruling Conservative Party and the Labour Party whose deputies approved this week a motion of censure against their leader Jeremy Corbyn
in addition, the UK lost the best financial rating and Standard & amp agency.; Poor’s decided to lower the rating of long-term debt of the EU. Meanwhile, the president of the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi, said that in the next three years the European economy would grow between 0.3 and 0.5% of GDP.
In a speech in Parliament European tycoon George Soros warned that the departure from the UK is triggering “a crisis in the only comparable financial markets in severity with 2007 and 2008.
As if that were not enough, the EU leaders have clearly expressed their discomfort, repeating that Britain should leave quickly the block. “I do not see how to reverse (the decision),” said German Chancellor Angela Merkel. This is no time for “illusions,” he said.
So, too, “in political sectors Spanish surprise by the Brexit generated lamentations about the result and led immediately to a certain irritation because of its implications,” said Jose Ramon Montero, professor at the Autonomous University of Madrid . the analyst added that “the outrage is already great when voices of British shown regretful result and asking to repeat the referendum, or young people who after abstaining en masse to vote, now lament stop being heard Europeans “.
” we do not know what will happen with the EU. There is little clarity and people do not understand, “said Dave Toule about the reaction of the Italians.” There is a feeling that the EU could collapse by everything that is happening in the UK “.
the British secretary of Justice and candidate to succeed Cameron, Michael Gove, said the Prime Minister should be someone who has supported the Brexit.
