MBGA= Make Britain Great Again

Welcome to Brexit: Some British travelers were shocked to have their food confiscated when crossing into the Netherlands. ‘This is the new reality,’ a Dutch military police spokesman said. ‘Not everyone seems to have realized what Brexit actually means.’ pic.twitter.com/czROYDVwHj

I don't think a lot of Brits thought this out fully. I've been reading what it means to those who hold bank accounts in neighboring countries. Driver licenses may no longer be recognized when they cross the British border (a special problem for transport drivers).. Passports/visas may now be required. French fishing trawlers are being chased out of the English channel by Britain's military ships where they've always fished before. Cargo trucks are now inspected for new tariffs' on items. The British pound is no longer being accepted for purchases in other European nations. I assume the Euro will no longer be accepted inside Britain as well on purchased items. Drugs and food items will have to meet separate standards then they held in common as before. The NHS may no longer cover medical expenses for Brits when they travel outside the country. New trade agreements will have to be drawn up with the United States now that Britain is no longer part of the European Union. There are particular issues in Ireland. While it has it's own government Brits still control the Northern part. Meaning parts of Ireland are still in the European Union while the northern end is not.

These and probably dozens more I haven't run across.

A case of "be careful what you wish for".
