Blighty Wound

1. A war wound which was not serious enough to kill or maim but was serious enough for the soldier to be sent home or to blighty. Also known as a million-dollar wound these could sometimes be self-inflicted for example a soldier shooting himself in the foot.

2. The damage inflicted on the UK by Brexit.

The UK has really shot itself in the foot with Brexit, it's a real Blighty Wound.
