Perhaps the most notable was the defeat of Liz Truss.
Notable? Who's that?

@ljs @oleksandr Isn't the PM sitting always the worst ever, like universally in any democratic country?
.... and opposition parties, which are as retarded as PM's party, represent "the change".

@jarkko @oleksandr no, not at all, and Liz Truss is not the current PM is she? :)
She's the worst due to crashing the economy totally unnecessarily, having absolutely no political game or charisma, and her incredibly short tenure.
She did very real damage to the UK economy for zero gain. The bank of England had to step in to bail out her very very stupid actions.
Then she reversed it and left.
So yeah, sorry but no mate.

@ljs @oleksandr ya, I don't know much about UK politics. I try to also keep my distance to Finnish politics because for some reason I always get a bad face when I read anything even distantly related to politics ;-)
One thing I neither get in Sweden nor UK is that why monarchy is still present but I guess it is a great tourist attraction like some zoo with super rare almost extincted animals :-)
I guess BREXIT was not that great decision. Before that happened, I used to spend at least few hundred euros per year ordering goods from UK. Now I spent less than hundred for printed media, which you can order customs free to some limit (might have been 150 EUR or similar figure). I don't think I was a "snowflake" in this one. Hope it gets reversed some day so I can loose my money for the benefit of your economy again ;-)

@jarkko @oleksandr yeah brexit was economic self harm, 100%. Whatever your views on the EU, it was a stupid, stupid decision (we already had tons of freedom in the EU anyway, special conditions basically).
Hopefully soon you can waste your money on British stuff again ;)

@ljs @oleksandr @jarkko i used to get mad about it the few times buying Diamine fountain pen inks from UK (they didn't have great EU-based resellers because I guess they kind of didn't need them before?), but now of course, we all found alternatives to them
