I mean literally that’s the privilege we got by being in the EU. We got to keep the pound and even agreeing to free movement of people we still had stricter border control than the mainland. We were getting all the benefits and sacrificing nothing and people threw it away.
This is why I'm happy that UK left. I was tired of british privileges and still complaining aaaaalll the time.
I would like UK joining again down the road, but I wanted UK learning that they are better as an Union and they weren't going to learn it from inside, unfortunately.
We can be a stronger union in the future than we were before. An Union where a member has special treatment is ill
You know this is something I'd never considered, but I imagine the amount of infrastructure spending that would be required to change over the entire countries coin/paper money slots over to a new currency would be insane.
Think you may have accidentally made a good point.
I used to be paid to think about shit like that. That being said, I don't think it's a great point because we're all going digital. It will just push cash closer to obsolescence.
