    Pretty sure the UK is no longer part of Europe. The greyed out countries aren’t part of Europe, so why would they be included?

      The UK is part of Europe, it just isn’t part of the EU.

          Not sure about that. The 51% who voted against membership still voted for the trainwreck of Tory leaderships.

          They won’t admit that it was a fuck up, because collapsing an economy, killing workers rights, and plunging more people into poverty than the past 30 years is fair game when you’re a racist.

            Out-dated British imperial ideals. For some reason a sizable portion of the UK believes they’re the most important country in the world because of… Legacy?

            Except that legacy has made a lot of bad blood around the world, and the rest of Europe was kind of happy to see the UK go, because the UK always wanted an exceptional place in e edy decision and deal with the EU.

              So many things you’ve said have been so wrong so far.

              You completely misunderstand what happen, what is happening, and other peoples reactions.

              You should stick with your poorly thought out American politics.

                I’m European. But yes, do please tell me how I “misunderstood” things, and not simply made an observation about the sheer arrogance and hubris of the UK, as one of your neighbours.
