I shouldn’t,but I will.
The English in general, Brexiteers or not, are only starting to see the irony you speak of, that the rest of the world copped onto a long time ago.
exceptionalism is a myth held solely in the minds of those who believe in it - its displayed in many ways but think of those people who voted for Brexit as they were against FoM having taken advantage of FoM to move to Spain and work in the black economy there and avoiding taxes. The thing they were convinced by others "forriners" were doing here - then they lived in "ex-pat" ( not immigrant ) ghetto's and refused to learn the language or even obtain a valid local driving license who then became outraged and blamed the "vindictive" EU when it used their vote to boot them out of Spain. Those people were so stupid it beggars belief
