Good on this Italian MEP bloke. He really gave it to the EU. Nail on head. I think Italy is going to be the next country to want to get out. ITEXIT!

Utter nonsense! :lol:

You are getting more repetitive than Milti.
Go ahead and explain why instead of posting stupid gifs

They don't want freedom of movement. They want to tighten their borders as a matter of fact because the EU is too liberal and free with their borders and are letting anyone in.

Getting a VISA is a very easy process with regard to any EU country. I myself have an EU passport and can go anywhere, but I also have an Australian passport which gets me into the UK very easily. It's also easy to get to many contracts like Germany and France in particular as an Australian so it isn't really a problem.

Brits will of course eventually be allowed to come and go to the EU as in a full customs union in due course after BREXIT once these matters are agreed to and ironed out. Once again, there are 1 million EU citizens in the UK and there are a few million Brits living in EU countries.


Who said they don't want freedom of movement? YOU?
Everybody wants freedom of movement including the hard Brexiters. Fact is they will lose this freedom for presumably tightening their borders.
It's one of the many things they will lose...

As for your wishful thinking they are going to get a full customs union, just wait and see how full that will be, and what commitments they will have to undertake and how much they will need to pay for the cost involved.
Fyi the EU customs union is not only for products made fully in a member state but also for products made partially in 3rd countries and finalized in the EU. Not an easy process to keep track...
E.g. in the past Britain was importing sugar canes and passing the final product -sugar as if it was "made in England". Those practices are over!

As for the Visas they would need to waste their time at embassies, some of them will be rejected e.g. known football troublemakers, and they'd have to abandon the visiting country after a certain period.

It’s a universal characteristic of Remainers on all the forums I visit. They think they’re asking questions but the reality is they’re actually demanding answers. There’s a not too subtle difference.

That's a healthy characteristic of debates.
What's unhealthy is receiving no answers, or simple "we want out, we voted out, when will we be out" hysterical cries. :wink:

No, it isn’t.

Personally, I’m not the hysterical type. :D

Neither do I feel any need to justify the entirely reasonable expectation that, having been assured by all the nation’s high ‘n’ mighty (see OP video) the referendum result would be honoured, that should actually happen.

Talking as one Democrat to another. :wink:
