I guess I didn't really think about how Brexit (though I guess I was focused on more important issues, like whether or not people would be able to get their medicine), but I probably would have assumed that the film industry would be hit by it. I'm glad that UK actors are still able to get jobs after Brexit (especially Saoirse Ronan). Though, with the way the author speaks about the situation, it might be a bit rocky. The UK film and TV market is very competitive and produces very good content, so I hope it stays that way. I really would hate to see a whole, incredibly successful industry fall off because of one terrible political decision that the citizens really didn't even fully understand. Anyways, I hope hundreds of thousands if not millions of people won't soon be out of a job because some people make really bad decisions.
