A British citizen who voted for Brexit has posted an ironic tweet while waiting in a long queue at Amsterdam’s Airport Schipol on February 13. However, since he tweeted that it wasn't the Brexit he voted for, the 'remainers' who had opposed the Britain exit from the European Union since the referendum were quick to make him understand that it was “exactly” what the Brexiteer wanted. 

Even though now UK has entered an 11-month transition period with the 27-nation-bloc, but the outcomes of Brexit will finally be applicable by January 1, 2021. Once the agreement is signed between both sides, the benefits of being an EU member will be removed, which means the Britons will be in the queues of non-EU citizens at the airport. Therefore, the Brexiteer's tweet has taken the internet by storm with anti-Brexit netizens posting comments like “so cute” that he still has not understood the “true meaning of Brexit”.

'Brexit you voted for'

The tweet by the user has been liked more than 25 thousand times with more than seven thousand retweets with netizens mocking him for being “dumb”. While some tried to explain to the Twitter user what Brexit means, others simply mocked him by saying 'this is exactly what you voted for'. One of the internet users also said that the 'remainers' tried to explain to the pro-Brexit citizens that leaving the decades-long membership has “far severe” outcomes, but the Brexiteers posed it all as “Project Fear”.
