From those that wanted to stay in the EU, we hear the positive reasons. Businesses are
said to get a big boost, and selling is easier thanks to free trade between countries. The large flow
of immigration gives the economy a boost as well, since many young people are willing to work.
Britains status in the world is also said to be damaged once they officially leave.
Big businesses tended to vote to stay in the EU, since its easier for corporations to move
people, money, and goods around the world if they are apart of a single market. So it would be
much harder to do the things they are already used to if their country was to leave, posing many
new restrictions that were not already there.
What happened after the Brexit vote?
After the initial vote, the economy in Britain change noticeably. The value of the pound,
which usually ranges between $1/35-$1.45 in American dollars, dropped to as low as $1.20.
Prices of daily goods in shops, including grocery stores, rose in an attempt to cover their own
budgets and costs. Britain stock market shares dropped several days after the vote. Scotland
voted to stay in, but since the rest of Great Britain voted to leave, Scotland is being forcibly
removed. This is causing worry for another independence vote so that Scotland could apply for
membership into the EU in the future.
How will it impact the people?
After seeing what has already happened just after the Brexit vote, not even after the
country has left, we have caught a glimpse of a damaging aftermath. On an individual level,
money will not buy you as much, and things will cost more. It will be harder to immigrate to
Great Britain and find places to work there, as a main priority for them is to cut back on
immigration and outside employment once they are out of the EU. On a national level, it will be
harder for businesses to trade throughout the country, as they will no longer be apart an
organization with treaties to let everything run smoothly. It will also be just as hard for
businesses to move people and money, for the same reason.
What would I do?
If I was a country in the EU, and was unsure of to leave or stay, after this research I
would stay. Everything seems to run more smoothly when youre apart of a group with laws set
in place to prevent bumps and errors. New proposals could be brought up if there were problems
with immigration or employment. It just seems like a smarter idea to stay.
