> This led to loss in sovereignty and freedom

I think you need to expand on this into some kind of actual, tangible result, this is just feelings. And even for feelings, it's nonsense - before Brexit my kids could legally move and work anywhere in the EU, how are they more free now?

Indeed more difficult but shouldn't be an issue, just a bit more admin work to apply for visas etc.
Visas that you are no longer guaranteed, lol.

It's literally all downsides, which you (not you personally) agreed to because of ego, thinking you can go back to a time when 'the sun never sets', when in actuality you've hastened much longer nights.

Sgt did personally agree to it because of ego. They cite wanting the UK to be a superpower again as one of the benefits of Brexit. He doesn't seem to understand the position Britain is in now.
Britain never was a super power, it was an evil empire hell bent on oppressing "inferior" peoples. It's no wonder Brexit was so popular with racists.
I know he did, but my point wasn't referencing just him but the thousands who think like him.
