Two days ago the United Kingdom left the European Union because of the brexit. Brexit, which is what happened after the people that live in the UK had to decided whether to leave the EU or to remain to the EU. The result of the referendum was that they wanted to leave the EU and as it was their wish, they left the EU on 31st January.
ResponderEliminarHowever, despite the fact that the UK has left the EU, the EU has confirmed the English will still the official language of the European Union, because this is still the most spoken language in the EU.
The decision to leave the EU was taken after while, but the Primer Minister in the UK didn´t want to leave the EU, althought he was the one who organized all the election. It is for this reason that it has taken them such a long time to carry out the decision taken.
I don´t think that it was a great idea because it is always safer if the EU can give you for example medicine, food, and if the UK had a problem the EU could help it. But now the UK needs to do all alone because it doesn´t have the EU to help them. In Spain we have a similar case with Catalonia, they want the independence, but Spain doesn´t want to give it to them, and in my opinion Spain is doing well because I don´t think that Catalonia has all the necessary resources to do all the things alone.

ResponderEliminarBrexit means that it leaves Europe, this is very bad because we can not visit England the same, this is very bad because we should live together in peace.
ResponderEliminarJohn McEnroe has been one of the best tennis players. He is remembered for being a great tennis player but also for his strong carácter in which he faced chair judges and referees. In 1980 he played the Wimblendon final against Björn Borg, for a long time it was considered the best final and he lost almost after four hours of play. In 1986 he left profesional tennis and is currently a commentator on the Eurosport channel.

ResponderEliminarBrexit is an abbreviation of “British exit,” and refers to the UK’s plan to leave the European Union. It’s the first time a member officially decides to leave the EU.
ResponderEliminarThe Brexit process began with the United Kingdom voting to leave the European Union in a referendum in 2016. At 11pm GMT on 31st January 2020, Britain officially left the EU after 47 years of membership. Specialists say that leaving the EU will allow Britain to re-establish itself as a truly independent nation.
Nobody knows how the Brexit will turn out yet. The majority say it may have a negative impact on the economy, on jobs, homes and trade relationships with other countries. However, supporters of Brexit think that it would be in the best interest of other European countries to re-establish free trade.
To sum up, the UK is no longer an EU member. Being the first country to exit the EU, it is yet to be seen the consequences that this will have for the country and its citizens.
