How Will The Brexit Changes Impact The Younger Generations Perspective

Brexit and the Younger Generation

The decision of the United Kingdom to leave the European Union was no small decision. It was and remains a political decision that will be felt for decades. Now that Britain has exited the European Community, there are many decisions to be made about how the country will run furthermore how it will operate concerning other nations that are still a part of the European Union.

However, an impact of Brexit will be felt most heavily by the younger generation. As this generation grows and begins to lead the United Kingdom into the future, they will feel the effects profoundly. How exactly, though, will British exit effect how the young age group looks at their opportunities?

Will Jobs Their Disappear?

Save Job

One major fear that British exit brought was fear that jobs would be lost. Some sources immediately post-Brexit were claiming as many as one hundred thousand UK jobs could be lost due to the decision. So, naturally, this put much fear into the growing generation. After all, many students along with young professionals worry about the fact that the opportunities in their career that they had been promised for years might not exist anymore.

While the job loss in the United Kingdom is not hemorrhaging is not as some sources feared it would be, Brexit has not precisely helped or left no effect on a job market. As such, many in the younger cohort see fewer chances for them in the business including other industries, build their careers or even get a job to start their lives on their own such as finding their flats moreover supporting themselves.

What About Expansion?

New Relationship A primary concern that came about when British decision was on the table and only multiplied when the vote came through that was how will the United Kingdom and the other countries within the European Economic Community work with one another? Without being in the same international unit, would these countries be treated the same as any other foreign country?

This led to public doubts in the upcoming generation, especially those who wanted to start or work in future business or startup. That is the question of how these businesses will grow. After all, if a company is going to expand outside the Albion, there are specific laws including regulations they need to follow. Even if they are partnering up or working with a second company, there are laws that they have to develop for international partnerships and trade. So, will these international laws be the same one used for relationships between the UK and EU?

This is a big part of the reason that an active peer group, like students, is turning into web businesses in the Albion. Online writing companies, like academic services for students, do not have quite as many regulations to reaching an international audience from the UK as a brick-and-mortar business that would need to set up physical locations and partnerships with other companies outside the country if they wanted to operate outside the United Kingdom.

What About Foreign-Owned Companies?

Another concern that act of leaving brought was what will happen to companies that are owned and operated outside the UK? After all, if there are worries about how a UK-based company would work around British exit if they were mid-expansion during or after the vote went through, the question works the same way.

For example, if a young person is making ends meet by working at an Albion branch of a Germany-based company or British student today is studying at French programs on Paris, what will happen when one of these countries leaves the Community of European Union? Will their workload and work-life change? Could they lose their job altogether?

This, of course, puts a more immediate fear in the green age, especially young professionals. While a change in the laws with relations between the UK and EU can eventually be learned, it is an immediate effect of businesses trying to avoid the mess that puts many younger workers on edge. After all, if they are working to pay for school and a flat, they are not going to be able to transfer to another location like a career worker might be able to.

Conclusion

London The Brexit decision brought with it plenty of change. The perceptions of these changes depended heavily on what side of an issue you stood. However, it only makes sense that such a long-term decision would affect inexperienced people more. After all, they are the ones that will grow up and begin their adult lives in this new, post-Brexit Britannia.

As such, it is essential to understand these perceptions that the youth of the United Kingdom of what Brexit will lead to. This way, we know what we need to work toward to relieve these fears and make the UK a land of opportunity to foster future growth.
