It's Official: U.K. has left the EU



Brexit has officially happened where will Johnson take Britain Next?

It's Official: U.K. has left the EU, What does it mean for Brexit? 

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson got his wish, U.K. has left the E.U. and the country is now facing a dilemma will they lose prestige and become a pariah in the shadow of EU? or will Britain gravitate towards the U.S. and in Trump's orbit? 

Britain since World War II has lost influence and power in the world especially since the British Empire broke and gave independence of its colonies, Scottish and Northern Irish Nationalists agitating for independence the U.K. itself is in danger of breaking apart into separate countries similar to the Soviet Union and that would further weaken an already weaken economy and the future of Monarchy once the Queen passes. 

Many people are divided in Britain over Brexit, many support it because they want Britain to regain its former prestige while others believe that Britain will isolated from Continental Europe that is already a strong political bloc with a bigger economy, a stronger currency and its held together by Germany which is the strongest economy of Europe and yields tremendous influence over the continent. 

Finalization of Brexit comes to a close on December 11 of this year so Johnson has to come up with a economic plan on how to restructure the economy, in what direction the country will go and will Britain remain on friendly terms with the EU while being on good terms across the Atlantic with the U.S. and curbing China's influence into the EU's politics.

Who knows only time will tell what will happen from here on out and if Boris Johnson will go down as Britain's savior or as Britain's Gorbachev.
