We ask readers in Britain and Europe to tell us how they are coping

As dates for the UK to exit the EU come and go, we’ve been asking readers to tell us how they’re dealing with the uncertainty. People who responded to a Guardian reader callout have described how the lack of clarity around Brexit has affected their livelihoods, raised fears of families being split apart, delayed travel plans and increased levels of anxiety.

W/o meaning to be inconsiderate, I am curious: Why on Earth didn't they (most of the individuals quoted in this article) apply for dual citizenship as soon as they could? You never know what might change politically, and excepting a few countries, there's NEVER a downside to it.

Sorry. You all should have thought this through. And if I was the EU I would just be done with you, and tell you to figure it out. You voted to upset your whole economy without any serious thought and the leaders that pushed it resigned almost immediately. You did it to yourself

MalcolmNance My dog and I are supposed to be meeting my mom in Scotland for Easter and I don’t know if her EU Per Passport will still be valid for entry into the UK.

Possible shortage of medicine will give rise to anxiety, depression, illnesses such as colitis, chrohn’s etc. Inability to completely control toilet habits is unpleasant for everybody, including Brexiteers. Sorry folks.

P,

The answer to uncertainty is not more uncertainty by applying for an extension, a no deal, though damaging, would give certainty.

The awnser to uncertanty is not more uncertanty by applying for an extension, a no deal, though damaging, would give certanty.

I’m shocked that Graun readers are so ill-informed. They do read the Graun though, so it isn’t really a surprise.
