Does Brexit lead to more democracy?

No, the UK middle class and proletariat will no longer have a say. Only people within the political class are exchanged. Nothing changes in the power relations. The middle class is worried about their access to doctors and specialists. Even if immigration is curbed even more now, it is inconceivable that more will be invested in this sector. The main campaign hit of the Brexit supporters was an amount of 350 million pounds, which London would transfer to Brussels. This would also be invested in the construction of hospitals after leaving. As soon as the polling stations were closed, this promise was withdrawn (The cynicism of the political class). Nor is it to be expected that school classes smaller and more teachers will be hired. More or less migrants will not change that. The free movement of capital is guaranteed. And the kingdom's particularly large tax loopholes remain for the time being. And the political class will now be under great pressure not to increase trade barriers. But since trade and culture (the political framework is also part of culture) cannot be separated, a setback is almost certain. The economic and social crisis revealed by the financial crisis is also reflected in the restoration in Central Europe. Poland, Hungary and Austria were only forerunners.
