Before Brexit, I had no particular opinion of Brits. Now I realize they can be entertaining to watch.

To coin a phrase, "Well they[1] would say that, wouldn't they".
[1] "Mablethorpe Tourism Association", just up the coast from Skegness and Miami Beach (yes, really!)

We do our best. But doesn't it get boring to watch people repeatedly shooting themselves in the foot?
Zero999:
It's just a distraction to keep some who voted Brexit happy. Unfortunately it won't because the main reason many voted to leave, was due to concerns over the large number of immigrants from the EU, yet immigration has only increased since the UK left.
I couldn't give a toss. We have more important things to worry about: high inflation, immigration, no face to face consultations with the doctor and a long wait even for a telephone appointment etc.
