  • I was thinking about that.

    I still reckon Brexit is slow-burn, the changes will be hard to spot, and they will happen over the long term. And it will be easy to blame anything other than Brexit for the bad stuff (the economy, the nasty EU people and their terms of exit, anything and everything really).

    Whereas Trump's action are having a more visible impact:

    • Some Muslims will have been denied entry/re-entry (perhaps now in effect permanently)
    • The two 'controversial' pipelines now look like they are going to be built
    • Individual states are now re-assessing their public health care commitments
    • The climate change agenda is now being incrementally subject to 'revisionism'
    • Global leaders are progressively reacting to American protectionism
    • All sorts of weird things are happening with Russia

    All of those will arguably affect people more immediately than Brexit.

  • Don't forget the wonderful idea that is relaxation/reversal of financial system regulatory reforms.

    I work for a bank and even I think its a terrible idea. (albeit a proven, stable and risk averse one)
