The Shambles Behind Brexit

Brexit. You might've heard about it. It's that thing that tends to be brought up over every news source from London to Nebraska every waking moment of every day. In fact, it's pretty much been soaking up the media spotlight for a good three and a half years now. But have we made any major progress in terms of leaving the European Union? Have we heck, my friends.

The shambolic episodes behind UK politics in the past few years has been both disgraceful and questionable at best. And, as the world shifts around our shameless agenda, we, the UK citizens, are left to cover faces as the world mocks our leaders efforts at trying to establish a better country. And yes – we're all bloody tired of hearing about it. And we know you are, too.

A lot of people outside of the UK tend to picture us citizens as these proud royal-loving faces who only wish to disembark from the pressures of the neighbouring lands. And, where 51.9% may believe that's the case, there is still almost half of the countries population that still wants to remain loyal to the EU. So, believe it or not – we're not all trying to disassociate ourselves from the world. A lot of us, in fact, just want things to go back to normal – before Brexit ever even happened.

But this isn't a political debate. This is a simple reminder that we're all just as tired as you about this Brexit nonsense. Even those who voted to leave the EU are tired of fighting for the prime minister to crack knuckles and get on with it. Everybody is sick of hearing about the madness that lurks within Downing Street. Everybody just wants to cut a deal, move on and establish new boundaries in a more peaceful light.

We hear it every moment of every day – blabbering on the radio or on TV. We see it on banners, or on adverts in our Facebook news feed. We feel it around us every second the clock ticks and the news publishes the latest trends. It's something that is always lingering no matter what we do or where we go. And, to be honest, we're tired. We're tired of Brexit. We're ready for it to just end and part ways with our economy.

So, for those living outside of the UK who're unfortunately drowned with our burden – please accept our apology. None of us want to hear it any more than you do, believe me. We're all just banking on some progress being made soon and for all of this nightmarish propaganda to subside. Until then, we can only choose to look the other way when the endless spools of Brexit-bashing comes knocking on our door.

So, on behalf of the British people, we are terribly sorry for our shambolic state of political infrastructure. We hope you can forgive us when we reach the other side.

Our methods of dealing with things aren't exactly textbook material. And, to be fair, the last four years has proven just how shambolic our government really is. Like headless chickens you might say; our leaders are aimlessly banking on a better future for our country but bringing the land to its knees in the process.

Who knows where the United Kingdom will stand this time next year. Here's hoping the reckoning of Brexit disappears and the rise of our country can return in a more elegant manner. But, with how things have been playing out recently, it wouldn't surprise me if we were just lapping back around to square one all over again.

Brexit: Love it or hate it – it's here to stay. Let's just hope 2020 brings the UK back to a more prominent status for all the right reasons. Fingers crossed, eh?
