The effects of Brexit, which took place at the turn of the year, are still barely noticeable among ordinary citizens in the EU.
But that could soon change: With a declaration of cease and desist at the European Court of Justice, Great Britain has achieved that its outlines are no longer allowed to appear on euro bills and coins.
According to information from London, Prime Minister Boris Johnson is said not to have endured the thought of no longer being able to annoy the EU and its residents with any demands after the successful approval of the Brexit deal.
EU should continue to be reminded of Great Britain
In order to continue to remind mainland Europe of the years of tough negotiations over the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union and not to allow the EU the triumph that the British Isles aesthetically upgrade their currency, the British are now invoking the right to their own image.

In plain language: If you do not want to run the risk of paying with counterfeit money due to the uncertain legal situation, you should immediately make the image of Great Britain on the back of your euro notes unrecognizable or mill it out of your cent coins.
Boris Johnson selflessly offers help
"If you are not so skilled in your craft, we can help you," Johnson offers the approximately 450 million euro owners unbureaucratic help, "just send us your invalid money and we will destroy it professionally."
Currency experts and political observers warn against making too hasty cuts.
On the one hand, you have to be very careful not to be too generous with the British Isles, because Ireland of course continues to use the means of payment in the EU.
On the other hand, it is advisable to cover a section of Scotland in order to be able to stick it back on the euro bills in the event of the Scots joining the EU.
