@ChrisMayLA6 Two things can be true at the same time. 😁
The UK’s malaise is deep-seated and has been around for a century. Membership of the EU hid its most egregious effects, but Brexit has turned it into a crisis.
The root cause is probably British exceptionalism — we have a wildly inflated idea of both our importance and our competence. And nowhere is this more evidenced than in our political system and the incompetence of our politicians.
