- The UK wants to make its own free trade deals and doesn’t want to pay more membership fees as a E.U. country
- The U.K. feels strangled for the decisions made by only a restricted group of European countries and wants to decide for its own destiny, without being forced by E.U. bureaucracy
- Brexit is one of the main consequences of the rise of populism, based on the desire to regain the control of immigration and reclaim national sovereignty from international institutions

- People have resentment towards many politicians and so-called super-rich; Brexit is the consequence of Cameron’s political mistakes during his government.
