The UK was hurt a lot, but we should not look down on them. Our Union lost a Member. That made us all weaker.

And if they ever want to come back, let us all put out our Hands and welcome them back. They don't need to be ridiculed, they suffered fairly the most from their actions. And it would take a lot of courage to admit they were wrong.

No, they chose to leave if the EU just welcomes them back what message does that show, that the Union is not just optional but you can hop in and out at will, that would be a terrible political move.
