The Main Motives and Obstacles of Brexit for the UK

On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom held a referendum on its membership in the European Union. Although most of Britain’s establishment backed remaining in the EU, 52 percent of voters disagreed and handed a surprise victory to the leave campaign. Brexit, as the act of Britain exiting the EU, is likely to occur in early 2019. In the autumn of 2016, May addressed the conservative party that UK is going to be a fully independent, sovereign country. For the United Kingdom, leaving the EU will mean withdrawing from the EU’s supranational political institutions and will lead to the erection of new barriers to the exchange of goods, services, and people with the remaining 27 member states. I am trying to have a survey on the main motives and obstacles of Brexit and the lessons of Brexit for the future of European, and somehow, global integration. The concentration of UK is on legal effects, human and citizens rights, immigration, monetary system, Irish border, global trade deals and fishing.
