It stands to reason that UK and EU along with it will crash and burn.

Putin and the Chinese must be very happy today!
Although this has mostly to do with the EU failing to curb the migration crisis than the Brits hating on the EU imho.

It doesn't bode well for UK involvement in EU-funded scientific research - something directly relevant to all of us here. 
I've noticed quite a few from the UK on here. Why don't some of you tell us what the real deal is with that. Over here all the news can seem to focus on is Trump's latest tweet.
Honestly, I wish I knew the ramifications of it all. I've read bits and pieces about land and waters that come into play, something about commercial fishing, etc. Some of the financial news talking heads indicate it could affect the rest of the world in one way or another.
Please tell us how it this is going to affect your every day lives, or the rest of the shrinking world.

The whole Brexit thing is a mess, our PM has only just survived a no confidence vote, then most of her own party are against her deal, I did not vote as I did not know who to believe as I don't believe MPs or the PM full stop. I don't know a lot about politics either only what I see on the news.
