I´m a bit torn what to hope for right now. On the one hand, I want a close relationship of the UK and the EU for the future, and I believe it´s going to be that way. On the other hand, I think the UK needs to feel the hurt to some extent that comes from their decision. If they don´t, if the UK walk away unscathed after decades of cherry picking from and throwing wrenches into EU policy making, Brexit will set too much of an example and other countries will follow. Reactionaries and nationalists all over Europe are already trying to set the tone for this to happen.
