I'm German so it's kinda always been at the back of my mind 😅 But it still took me a while to come to terms with the fact that things could in fact become as bad if not worse than they were back then. 2025 has been very sobering in that regard.

I always appreciated what the EU stood for and what it did for its member nations, but I didn’t think that there was a chance that our membership would be brought into question, let alone that we’d leave. I wouldn’t shut up about leaving being a bad idea in the run up to the referendum. I took us being members for granted.

I agree with you about 2025 though.
