I left the UK in part due to Brexit. I'm a British citizen too.

I remember drinking with my friends and my Austrian friend said this to me: we will be fine, we are in tech, we may earn less but we will survive .. the ones that will hurt most are the idiots that voted for this.

I like his sentiment, but I wish it were that the ONLY people that would be hurt would be them. For absolutely nothing but a vague sense of nationalism.
