But you can hopefully now see why at least some people voted in favour of Brexit. With partners and best friends like that, who the hell needs enemies?

You're going to have to get used to the fact that England isn't the exception anymore. It voted for that. Live with it.

Though Brexit may end it, in which case, UK border control returns to the UK border and the French will carry on as usual. Either way, will those who voted Leave because of this get what they expected Brexit to change?

I can't think of any other area of the developed world where the kind of mess that Europe has made in terms of border controls would be allowed to happen and fester for so long.
