The British are frantically Googling what the E.U. is, hours after voting to leave it

Google reported sharp upticks in searches not only related to the ballot measure but also about basic questions concerning the implications of the vote.

Is there anyone even alive in the U.K. who remembers what life was like before the EU?

 

It's only been 25 years, more or less, since it was constituted in its current form.
