Wasn't the UK in reality not a full member of the EU since the early 90s. They have a opt out of the Euro currency that is permanent. They never supported further political or military integration of the EU.
Isn't Brexit simply an acknowledgment of a reality that has existed for over 2 decades. Can't the UK simply create new trade agreements with the EU.
If the UK stayed in the EU they would have grown further and further from the Eurozone countries on the Euro and this would lead to further animosity.
I think in the end this is not such a big deal. The UK can move forward and the EU can push forward to integrate the Eurozone countries further if Germany is willing.
