Pretty much almost nothing has changed for the average Brit since 6 months ago, because most of the effects of Brexit have been delayed yet again until Jan 1, 2021. As of today, the main difference is that the UK is no longer a part of the decision-making process of the EU. How and what will change depends on the deal that is agreed upon between now and then, if any. Hard Brexit is still possible, and now the EU has little reason to negotiate fairly other than out of an interest to avoid causing a humanitarian crisis.

In the meantime the US is doing their best to swoop in and negotiate a trade deal that will allow them to become the UK's most influential trading partner, though presumably they have competition from the EU and China and other major powers. How that unfolds will be interesting, so stay tuned!
