In this two-part series, Alex Forsyth, a BBC correspondent who’s covered Brexit from both Brussels and Westminster, looks at what impact the decision to leave the EU has had on various aspects of public and political life, both within Britain and beyond. In the first episode, Alex and guests discuss Brexit's effect on the UK economy, trade, and immigration, and how the referendum result impacted Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Did Brexit encourage the trade boom that the Leave campaign promised? Was the UK able to ‘take back control’ of its borders? And has Brexit poured fuel on the fire of the independence movements in the devolved nations? ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-documentary-podcast-487670/episodes/brexit-ten-years-on-part-1/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-documentary-podcast-487670/brexit-ten-years-on-part-1.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
