Brexit has been a staple in British discourse for years, stirring as much fatigue as fervor. Are there any new angles left to explore, or have we truly exhausted them all?

The Irish Backstop has been dissected more than a frog in a biology class. Yet, understanding it doesn’t seem any closer.

Boris promised an ‘oven-ready’ deal that feels perpetually stuck at ‘pre-heat.’ Will it ever be ready to serve?

Just when we think we’re out, they pull us back in with another transition period. It’s like Brexit has a subscription model.

Brexit meant leaving, but customs checks make it feel like we never left. Every import now brings a paperwork party.
6. The Northern Ireland Protocol

This protocol has stirred more drama than a soap opera cliffhanger. Will there ever be a season finale?

Keir Starmer critiques the government’s Brexit strategy like a judge on a baking show. But are his alternatives any sweeter?
8. The Pound’s Volatility

The pound swings more wildly than a pendulum. Should we brace for impact or ride the wave?
9. ‘Taking Back Control’

‘Taking back control’ sounded grand, yet here we are, seemingly more out of control than ever.

Rights for EU citizens in the UK were debated, adjusted, and debated again. Have we landed on solid ground yet?

15. Blue Passports

Blue passports were a symbol of sovereignty, but they haven’t sped up any travel lines.

Brexit’s impact on healthcare goes beyond medicine shortages; it’s the long-term prognosis we worry about.

The tautology of ‘Brexit means Brexit’ has filled more airtime than actual information. Can we get a translation, please?
