Schadenfreude is not nice.
But sometimes I can't really help it. Brexit is one of these things.
So you're farming oysters. You make a living selling these oysters IN THE EU. The snails you harvest and sell in Asia are cleaned IN THE EU.
You voted for Brexit because you wanted to be FREE OF THE STINKY EU (and no stinky foreigners or refugees, amirite?), and believed nothing would change for you.
... I mean, why would you think that? Why would your third-country-oysters be treated differently from any other third-country-oyster? You wanted out. Now you're out.
Now please put away that surprised pikachu face. You're free. Free of the duties, the regulations (lol), and the market.
