With the end of the Brexit transition period, Britain definitively left the EU at the beginning of the year. But in the small town of Ramsgate in southern England, the chances of a Brexit seem vague and hungry fishermen believe the government has sacrificed its interests in negotiations with Brussels.
Once a large fishing industry flourished in Ramsgate, now the remaining professional fishermen only went to sea with small boats.
The first day that EU rules no longer apply in the UK it is cold and foggy. To protect themselves from the icy breeze, walkers on the seafront in the seaside town of Ramsgate are bundled up, only a few steadfast people plunging into the waters of the murky English Channel on New Year’s Day in keeping with an old tradition. A highly contagious variant of the corona virus has forced almost all of Britain into a strict lockdown, which is why restaurants, pubs, cafes and most shops in the county of Kent in southern England are also closed. . Consequently, there were no major public celebrations when the Brexit transition period ended on New Year’s Eve at 11pm local time with the ringing of Big Ben in London. The day after the final Brexit, in Ramsgate, which has been paralyzed by the authorities, neither the freedom desired by the Brexiteers nor the concerns raised by the Remainers about the economic consequences of leaving the EU are felt.
