French playing 90 day rule games.?

What I can't recall reading anywhere through this very lengthy topic is the fact that there are ever growing numbers of people living throughout Europe who are fed up to the back teeth of what the EU has become.
The programme Ed Balls presented last week when he visited Holland illustrated something that I have know for some time having listened to several Dutch friends that they are fed up with the EU and the same goes for a large number of French friends and I know of quite large numbers of people from Italy, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Polland and Hungary who are all wishing to follow the lead set by the UK.

So we will have to see...................... All I do know is that I no longer have any plans to ever cross the English Channel ever again.

You perhaps don’t intend visiting the mainland , that’s your choice , but those that do enjoy extended trips are having that choice in all probability removed.

I can’t see that being fair, after all normally we would wanting to extend our rights of movement not curtail what we have enjoyed the last 40 years you surely don’t have to be a remainder to appreciate that viewpoint, neither does the viewpoint of those Europeans who are fed up with the eu really hold much sway or influence.

The best we can hope for is during the transition period a deal is brokered that reflects freedom of movement both ways entirely different to emigration and immigration ... our relationship may see that happen after all the first and only member to leave ,but of course there is also the chance the uk will be made an example of , that sends a message to member states,

I just hope what ever happens we have definitive answers sooner rather than later so people can prepare for arrangements
 
I’m sure Millie that the large number ( tens, hundreds, thousands?) of people you know of in the Netherlands, France, Italy, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Polland (where’s that?) and Hungary will be desolate that you won’t be crossing the English Channel and returning to good old Blighty.

Good really glad we never met you . Coincidentally we have decided to go for Spanish residency , despite the cost as I cannot bear to be part of BBB , Boris's Bullshit Britain.
 
It,s not the Spanish police that want it the orders that have come from Brussels
Maybe Spain like Britain should have is grow some balls . No good saying we can rule the world if we cant win arguments in Britain?

Agreed if this planet is ever to survive we need to learn how to work together
 
Further, perhaps they may also be relying on the NHS and an EHIC to look after them. Rather than making other arrangements such as joining the Spanish heathcare system. Since they have been there for over 6 months that would suggest that they are not "ordinarily resident" in the UK so would not.


Many many expats have discovered this only when they needed it and it wasn't there for them.

Really if you are going to move abroad, do your homework and follow the rules. Don't expect to just carry on regardless.
Actually we are quite happy , iof we die there is enough life insurance to pay for cremation and maybe someone will take our ashes home , but then again we are not that bothered anyway
 
lucky I am in the healthcare here I have herd that some places will not except EHIC card so I would advice anyone to ask before you have any treatment if they will except this card
 
IF the EU ever finished it would be nothing to celebrate.
2008 would be like a panto by comparison.
So I would be careful what you are wishing for.
 
Correct, many EU citizens are asking the question, what is this regime all about? With the amount of money each member state is mugged for by the Hierarchy within, we should ALL, be living in Utopia, which we are not.

Which is why UK will have a hard time, for having the balls to stick two fingers up to the well heeled who get fat on our sweat.

Please don't cease your trips over the channel, it is not the people, many of whom you have befriended over the years, it is the power hungry and greedy Eurocrats we need to be rid off!!
No please dont come , neither of you are welcome , and dont try to tell me that Westminster is anything less greedy and self centered than Brussels
 
Jus read this...https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-46237012
Transition period is 21 months ? How did I miss that....thought everyone said it would end 31/12/2020?
That article is 14 months old. I'm sure the views/opinions expressed were believed at the time - things change :-(

You really have to stop talking so much sense Andrew, you are spoiling the thread:)

I find it incredible that a group of people on a forum like this who have enjoyed unlimited unhindered access to Europe for so long, that some actually think there is something to celebrate in the restrictions that are sure to come. Talking about Europe splitting up and going back to pre common market days with borders between each state. How is this beneficial to anyone on here.
 
Be hard not to, due to the fact Mrs R is a French citizen, who has done the paperwork to formally allow her residence in UK after Breakfast.

As for Westminster, how many tiers of bureaucracies does one have to fund and, the world is no better for this.
Ah hiding behind the woman I see. I agree get rid of westminster, and lets get governed by Brussels and ultimately world government
 
It could work, basically, Status Quo, without having to pay billions for the privilege. Heyho, toys out the pram for UK having the audacity to stand up an be counted.

You might be right but I think I will spend the rest of my life saying DBM IVR (Dont blame me I voted Remain )
