I'd assume that as it's a mix between Britain and exit, the proper pronunciation is 'breck-sit' but many people pronounce exit as 'egg-zit' so there's really no issue with 'breg-zit'

Yeah that's how I'd pronounce "exit"

Can’t believe a Scottish person has the gall to tell people how to pronounce words properly...

The Scottish accent is actually a very phonetically complete dialect :hee:. (Which means we CAN pronounce most sounds, and just deliberately pronounce things differently).
