00:00Ollie, five years ago feels like yesterday I must admit I remember the

00:04day so well. So five years since the UK left the EU, so many divided opinions

00:10about whether the country is better off or not. What changes and impact has it

00:15had? Yeah it feels like five days ago but also somehow 50 years ago. Five years

00:23though it is and the country has had to change in many ways since then not least

00:33UK's biggest trading partner and all that that has meant for businesses that

00:38do trade with countries in the European Union. As you say it's changed politics

00:44forever here in the UK as well it's changed the way people can move around

00:49the European continent be that for travel for holiday purposes or for

00:54business purposes for finding employment that has changed and become

00:59harder for many people wanting to work on the European continent and vice
