Already your peoples are seeing the advantages to being outside your union as their numbers of dead continues to rise alarmingly purely because of EU failures.

At last Solly sees the obvious!
The EU can never be a union of equals because the people in the countries which make up the union are all different; they have different histories, languages, needs and outlooks for a start.
That's why the union as it is can never truly succeed.

It is a bit strange: I have read multiple times that the UK regarded itself as an important major player within the EU. If that was true then, then they had a say in all decisions.
Now having left the EU is displayed like a bad family who was mean to one child and now the poor child is happy to have left.
I know nobody would ever agree with me here. On the other hand so many people in the UK believed their leaders when they promised that they would have the same benefits even without paying the membership fee...
I'll never understand them

That's their definition of independence, standing alone, going it alone, benefiting from the sunny uplands alone. Alone, but not lonely.

On the other hand, I think if I was a Brexiteer I would not want to import anything from or export to a country which is member of a union that I hate/despise so very much.
Obviously there are different views of "independence".

If it means so little to them, why the fuss in here?
No country is truly independent in that trade between countries is inevitable - even North Korea and Iran have allies supporting them.
It's the EU that suffer a lack of independence.
Their member countries are pushed out by their fellow members on a whim too for daring to be a little more independent even when the so-called "union" lets them down badly and that results in fatalities.
Ask Austria, Slovenia and the Czech Republic who saw the EU deny them the extra vaccines which the rest of EU-land is getting (albeit at a cost).
