Lol, some would call you over remain-minded. I appreciate that you miss what you lost clearly (beyond even the wages).

As an EU citizen in blighty, I care even less about the EU than before seeing that even the wealthiest countries within the EU have regressed socially and politically.

Obviously your own issue doesn't have much to do with EU countries' domestic policies, you relied on UK membership of the EU for trade.
