    Oh no! The country that stole a ton of shit suddenly is not so great now that they can’t steal more shit!

    But really, they got all the global wealth and it made them rich. They thought they were rich because they were intrinsically great but really they were just propping themselves up. They thought they could brexit and retain their greatness but the EU wasn’t stifling them it was masking their decline.
