A teacher of the European Institute of the London School of Economics and Political Sciences (LSH) Professor Ian Beg said that the UK who left the European Union (EU) 5 years ago did not receive the expected results in the field of economics and immigration.
At one time, the idea of the UK from the EU (Brexit) was expressed by marginal groups, starting in the 1990s, the global economic crisis of 2008 led to the fact that this idea began to support the Mainstrom policies.
The term “Brexit”, formed from the words “Britain” and “Exit”, first appeared in an article published in 2012 by the former president of the analytical center “British Influence” Peter Wilding.
Wilding said that Brexit will become inevitable if the UK is not a leader in the EU.
at the time when Wilding’s statements about the “liberation of the UK from the EU bureaucracy” and “restoration of control” received great support, the behavior of voters changed.
The Ultra Party of Independence of the United Kingdom (UKIP) Nigel Faraja, who advocates exit from the EU, has become more influential, increasing the number of its votes. UKIP headed for voters of the ruling conservative party.
The then Prime Minister-Cacenator David Cameron, who did not want to lose the election base, promised to leave the EU in 2017.
After the Conservative Party took first place in the elections of 2-15 years, on June 23, 2016, a referendum was scheduled for Brexit.
– the British voted for exit from the EU 52 percent of the vote
During the pre -election campaign, the party mainly advocated to stay in the EU. UKIP, one of the national parties, resolutely advocated Brexit, while the Conservative Party did not declare its position.
One of the leading leaders of the party, Foreign Minister Boris Johnson resolutely advocated exit from the EU.
Residents of the United Kingdom voted for Brexit 52 %, but it took 4 years to leave the EU EU. During this time, 3 early elections were held in the United Kingdom and 3 prime minister changed.
Boris Johnson, the third prime minister in the Brexit process, once came to power as a result of early elections in December 2019, and then received the approval of the House of Commons, the House of Lords and Queen Elizabeth in January 2020 for an agreement with the EU OB Brexit.
Although the UK actually left the EU on the last day of 2019, the official exit occurred on January 31, 2020.
– My passport is already full after Brexit
According to Professor Ian Begga, Brexit had both positive and negative consequences for both the EU and the UK.
Assessing the events and expectations of Brexit in the 5th year, in an interview with the correspondent of the Anadolu agency, the Beg noted that the agreement on trade and cooperation signed immediately after Brexit was agreed very quickly and did not cover some issues.
