Not really. The dutch hinted at allowing dual nationality for brits in the worst case. Dont know anyone thats applied tho.I'm hoping so... And the Eurostar
On a serious note has any European country made any announcement on UK citizens who live or work there yet?
Javid said 700,000 people living in the UK could not speak English.
“As home secretary, I will apply these principles to those who arrive in our country. So not only will there be a new values test but we will also strengthen the English-language requirements for all new citizens.”
The majority of British people living in France can't speak French.
100% thisI’m not disagreeing with you about DUP. I’ve never voted fir them and I never would. But I wouldn’t let SF off the hook either, I remember them getting caught out in Derry with dead peoples votes ffs, or the thugs going door to door trying to intimidate people to vote for them. That’s before I even touch on them having a presence at Derry riots etc back in the day.
I wouldn’t trust either party as far as I could throw them. As far as I’m concerned this island would be better off if both sides were thrown in jail and the key melted in Mordor.
Then actual non-crazy people can get on with dialogue

Likewise a significant chunk of Brits on the Costa ... Be interesting to see how the EU treat Brits wanting to retire or spend 6 months a year in their holiday homes
now you mention it sheI see the Libertines are back.
My understanding is that the vast majority of them were in favor or remaining - perhaps they should consider moving to gibraltaA big chunk of whom are Brexiteers who are appalled by the EU plans of restricting their FOM to just the hosting country
Brexit is about controlling the UK borders and those of the EU as well
now you mention it she

Out of interest what happens to Gibralta ref hard boarder and tarifs etc - thats not been mentioned at all?
The EU has given Spain a formal veto over Brexit if Madrid is not happy with the Gibraltar dimensions of a Brexit deal.
Most UK immigrants I know tend to justify brexit They also seem to think that they are special (expats) and they should be treated differently because the hosting country economy would collapse without them
Immigrants come into a country generally for better opportunities which in turn benefit society and the economy in generalYou call them immigrants and they meltdown. I never understood that.

This is just mental.
Brexit is clearly not good news for us in ROI, but the longer this goes on the more part of me hopes the UK get exactly what they deserve here, despite how much that will hurt us too. I know there's good folk on here that will not like that train of thought, but Jesus- how are the EU expected to soften their stance when they're faced with this bullshit?
I think no deal is all but guaranteed here.
Javid’s comment only makes any sense (being generous) if all or nearly all those 700,000 are from EU countries. I suspect that’s not true.
Besides, if you are in the UK to perform seasonal labour like fruit picking, why do you need more than a few basic words of English anyway?
Gibralta
Hard brexit = hard boarder
what happens?... its not been mentioned much and certainly not as much as Ireland but surely the same problems exist - possibly even more so in some respects (namely

To be fair if he left his coffee unnatended close to me he would certainly be a dirty bastard for drinking it...Missed my chance this afternoon. After meeting engineers on a project in Brum this morning we strolled over to a second meeting with time to kill and walked into the Remain crowd outside the tory conference so had a laugh with them and wandered away with Bollox to Brexit, Demand a Final Say badges on and a stick of Brexit rock complete with the words Brexit Sucks through the middle.
As the 2nd meeting was a presentation to Highways England, technically still a government office, we felt it wise to remove the badges before heading in but I regretted it on the way home when I ran into Michael Gove at Warwick services. I can confirm however that the reptilian cnut buys his coffee at Costa before heading to the bogs and then carries it to the urinal with him, dirty bastard.

They are being pragmatic... Why would an Irish person elected by Irish people on the island if Ireland ever take a seat in a British parliament located in London?Just out of interest is it 100% impossible that in a really close vote the Sinn Fein MP's could actually attend the house of commons if their votes would bring down May?
My gut feel is they wouldn't but could pragmatics ever overcome their objections to sitting in the houses of parliament?
To prevent a hard boarder causing damage to said Irish people or to try and force a 2nd referendum to ensure the will of the Irish people who voted to remain in the EU is carried out?They are being pragmatic...

I guess they are just a little more true to their beliefs, integrity isn't usually a trait you'd associate with politicians, but there you have it.To prevent a hard boarder causing damage to said Irish people or to try and force a 2nd referendum to ensure the will of the Irish people who voted to remain in the EU is carried out?
Its a valid decision not to recognize the authority of the parliament - but if doing so causes lasting economic hardship for those they represent (and lets remember they represent a constituency not all of whom would have voted for them... not all of whom would necessarily identify as Irish) plus could actually do more to divide and ultimately harm the goal of a united Ireland they could you know perhaps exercise their right to vote?
I didn't think they would - put there are certainly arguments on both sides of the issue as to what would be the best course of action.
I could be wrong but don't MPs need to swear and oath of allegiance to HM and the British state? That could be a clincher as to why they wont take their seats. They are also looking fantastic at the moment by doing absolutely nothing and leaving the whole shebang to May and Foster.I guess they are just a little more true to their beliefs, integrity isn't usually a trait you'd associate with politicians, but there you have it.
The economic failure of the Northern Irish state due to the votes of people in mainland Britain is one more reason why Northern Ireland should not be part of Britain... I am guessing that is how they will use the result. It is a political game of chess. A majority voted remain in NI and now the British government is dragging them out of Europe against their will... That will result in people from all sides eventually coming to terms with NI probably being better off not part of Britain.
It's probably not even that calculated. It is as simple as never taking a seat in the government buildings of what is an illegal invading country. Sinn Féin and it's associates see themselves as torch bearers of the original provisional Irish government that declared itself in 1916. They will never recognise Britain's claim to dominion over any part of Ireland. Taking a seat at Westminster to deal with Irish affairs would be tantamount to acceptance of that dominion and would legitimise it.
No deal is better than a bad deal
Strong and stable
Controlling our borders
etc.
Find it remarkable how people are just talking about a Canada like deal like it's nothing. It will kill the manufacturing sector stone dead. Services would also be crippled.
Yes, which would be acceptance of the dominion of the British over parts of and the people of Ireland... Saying some words in a foreign language isn't really the root of thr issue is it. Or do you think that's the reason?I could be wrong but don't MPs need to swear and oath of allegiance to HM and the British state? That could be a clincher as to why they wont take their seats.

I have a serious question.
What would be some advantages of Brexit.
