Brexit
The United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union, known as Brexit, officially took place on January 31, 2020, after a referendum held on June 23, 2016, in which 51.9% of voters chose to leave the EU. The UK is the only member state to have withdrawn from the EU, and following Brexit, EU law no longer has primacy over British laws. The UK retained relevant EU law as domestic law through the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, which can be amended or repealed. The Brexit process was marked by a four-year negotiation period, two snap elections, and a withdrawal deal that was passed by Parliament, allowing the UK to leave the EU and participate in EU institutions during an 11-month transition period. The UK and EU signed a trade deal on December 30, 2020, which provisionally applied from January 1, 2021, and formally came into force on May 1, 2021.learn more on wikipedia
