Before a final Brexit situation is imposed, the government should beta test it. A/B test it. UX test it. So those who voted Leave can have a taste of it.
If taking part in the Brexit UX test, you're issued a blue non-EU non-Biometric Passport. This gives leave voters the chance to queue up at passport control when entering Spain, France etc. They will also need to apply and pay for tourist visa's to visit EU countries.
In addition, you get a new tax code, which takes an addition 10% ~15% off your salary, to replicate the increased cost of EU imported foods, medicines etc.
You immediately have 30% of your savings taken, to mimic the economic crash that will be inevitable. If converting £ to foreign currency you have to pay 30% more.
You can visit a special Job Centre that only employs UK citizens. Majority of jobs are hotel cleaner, nurse, doctor, agricultural worker. And a lot of jobs require fluency in a European language.
Convert Tesco's into Brexit-mart's - supermarkets that stock only UK foods and bleach washed American chickens and USA pesticide infected fruit & vegetables. The EU imported foods are 40% more expensive and passed their sell by date already. Also majority of shelfs are empty.
Some hospitals could be converted to the Brexit-medical centres. They have £350m more spent on them, but barely any doctors or nurses to replicate the loss of EU staff.
You also have all your Amazon package etc delayed, have to pay a custom fee on all your packages, with most going missing to mimic how imported goods will be stuck at customs as we have no deals and haven't recruited any extra customs officers.
Then let's have a 2nd vote, to see which UX they prefer, the EU-UX or the Brexit-UX.
- You down vote but this is what's coming to miserable weathered UK.shapesalad
