Brexit: Let democratic countries choose the health service they want

For much of the global readership of this journal, arguments on Brexit (Britain ’s departure from the European Union) may seem parochial: a storm in a teacup. Why should nurses in China, Brazil or the USA be concerned that the British people exercised their democratic rights in a plebiscite on membership of a transnational organisation? The UK is leaving the European Union (E U), not Europe. With London the financial capital of the world, a boom in manufacturing and tourism, highest-ever employment figures, and UK universities riding high in the world rankings, Britain can hardly be perceived as a nation in crisis.
