My takeaway is that it is actions that are within the scope of existing legislation that would otherwise not have happened, but that are also subject to less oversight, and would not have happened in the same circumstance were we still within the EU.
My takeaway is quite biased towards EU membership being generally a GoodThing though.
I don't think anyone (here) has claimed the EU didn't achieve anything in the UK. I was curious if there was, in fact, a change in law post-Brexit that made previous illegal sewage practices legal.
I worry that there's a risk to viewing every little bad thing that happens through the lens of Brexit; or worse, seeing bad things which aren't Brexit related as if they are. It could mean that big issues may slip by where mobilisation would be of use.
