Four decades of misinformation, and (put bluntly) lies about the EU allowed brexiteers to peddle the myth that as the EU 'need us more than we need them' it would all be pretty much the same............despite the constant warnings of what leaving would do.

Bill 1,788 Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) it does have its funny bits though Spanish police and immigration officials expect to deport around 500 UK citizens within weeks with targets already earmarked to be picked up and sent home for not having the correct paperwork to remain. Authorities have previously turned a blind-eye to Brits not legally registered in Spain but under Brexit rules they have to be out of the country by March 31 when they will be deemed as illegal immigrants as their 90-day legal stay comes to an end. British expats are heading home from Spain Returning expat Shaun Cromber voted Leave but said he did not believe Brexit would end his Spanish lifestyle. He said: "Yes I voted out, but I didn’t realise it would come to this. "My application has been rejected and we are on our way home – my wife is in tears, she’s distraught if I’m honest and I’m not too happy at the prospect of returning back to the UK."

Bill 1,788 Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) "Now, like all other foreigners from outside the EU, British visitors who were once able to come and go on a whim will be limited to stays of 90 days within every 180 days. Those wishing to register as residents will have to jump through a number of bureaucratic hoops to prove earnings of £2,000 a month — and £500 more for each dependent — as well as acquire Spanish driving licences. The end of the transition period on December 31 prompted a rush of applicants for residency cards before the new earnings requirement took effect. But the paperwork has proved taxing for many expats who speak little Spanish. Others who let properties in Spain are put off by the far higher tax they will have to pay as non-EU citizens. “The Sunday roast, fish and chips brigade, have taken a big hit. A lot have thrown the keys back and ****ed off,” said Julian Charter, an estate agent and former pub landlord from Newbury, Berkshire, living in southern Spain, who added that the pandemic had also contributed to this outflow. Michel Euesden, owner of Euro Weekly, an English language newspaper in southern Spain, said: “Removal companies have never been busier. There’s an abundance of people leaving.” Daphne Vallins, 64, has returned from southern Spain to live with her mother in Leatherhead, Surrey. “I did not want to apply for residence status. It would mean paying £100 a month in private health insurance, changing my UK driving licence into a Spanish one and having to pay my taxes in Spain,” she said. Among those affected are so-called “swallows”, Britons with second homes in Spain who used to come and go as they pleased but will now have their passports stamped with entry visas limiting them to three months in Spain like other tourists from outside the EU. They are dispirited. “We decided that it was all too much if we could only spend 90 days there,” said Chantal Purdy, a retired school examiner who, with her husband David, moved home to Hinckley, Leicestershire, last year for good. “We are very sad as we adore our house in Spain. We never imagined that Brexit would stop all this. It is awful.” Euesden said: “We were warning about the consequences of Brexit, but nobody took any notice. Now our lives have changed for ever.” Edited March 27, 2021 by Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beggars belief really, and we thought Swindo and Paul were thick but they're going to have really up their game a lot if this guy joins the Pink Un board.

I have asked him 15 times for a link to his lie about the U.K. and he keeps ignoring me. Is he the previous poster Teemu’s Right Foot ‘. What he has done here is taken some truth mixed it with his hatred, then turned it into a lie. If you read @A load of squit post you will see his addition to make it a lie. The difference between you and him is you genuinely put articles which may or may not be correct, he takes articles adds a bit of nonsense knowing it’s not true and because he knowingly knows it’s untrue it’s a lie. As I keep explaining a huge amount of the problems are down to the US, but people find it better to blame the EU for everything. The EU have had their faults in the process, but it seems in April ( remember you said I had got it wrong ) the EU will have plenty of Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson and Johnson. You must also remember that other than AstraZeneca the US have huge control over the main companies hence their constant humiliating comments of AstraZeneca, again most of the derogatory statements of the Oxford vaccine come from the US but we have chosen to place them on the EU.
