BREXIT
The United Kingdom has now officially left the European Union. Given the eleven-month transition period to the end of 2020, very few people will notice any material changes. Removal of British MEPs from the European Parliament and British Citizens no longer being EU Citizens are a part of the significant legal and constitutional changes that are yet to have little impact on the ground.
Attention-grabbing headlines and extended uncertainty will dominate as the negotiations continue throughout 2020 and likely beyond. Whilst many political messages on both sides will be directed at domestic audiences, the risks remain real and the volatility of outcomes high.
