Where can you no longer go to?

I'm talking green card insurance which I will need for every EU country and some will no longer be covered. Prior to batty Brexit I didn't need any of that nonsense.

But now you are a British citizen again, instead of an EU citizen.

I think that's much of the problem. I don't know why, but some folks took a greater sense of pride in being an EU citizen. I guess you were a member of a bigger club?

I know I wouldn't want to to be a North American citizen..

Fuck that.

Consequences?

How has your life changed since Brexit?

Do you live in fear and dread every day like Stooo does?

The freedom of movement I once enjoyed has been seriously curtailed.

Also, did you think about paying to go to Europe, or did you think about kitemarks? Don't bother to lie.

If Scotland ever get independence, will you suddenly be telling the Scots how you warned them that things might not go as well as they would have liked?

Had I known about having to pay 7 euros to go to Europe at the time of the ref, I might have voted differently.

It's the end of the world as we know it.

Moaning about Brexit has become a full time hobby for some - it's got inside their heads and is playing with their minds.

I'm trying to work out if you're having a psychotic episode or just trolling.

You do understand that it was the Brexiter who was complaining about the £7 charge don't you?

It was carefully explained to them, and with some considerable patience, that the charge applied to all third countries and the UK - having left the EU as the Brexiter wanted - is now a third country.

If you're perfectly happy paying the extra £7 please explain to your fellow Brexiters it - along with the £440 million a week the Bank of England says the UK has lost in trade due to Brexit - is the cost of Brexit.

It's amazing to me that anyone would want to have any decisions made outside of their country.

Fuck that noise. Handle your own shit.

Great in theory just like communism and working out in the same way...

This is what secession looks like and it ain't pretty

It's actually great in practice, unless you're a fan of serfdom.

I guess serfdom is the new MAGA word of the week.

And of course being from Texas he won't even know when it was abolished, if he was from a state closer to US average for educational attainment he might have a shot but Texas ... Nah.

You made up a list - can you post some links?

Page 4 - what you keep deflecting from.

That's the list you made up. Do you have any links to show those are big problems?

So you considered the consequences, the loss of industries, peoples jobs, their homes, and thought "yep i'm cool with that, sod 'em"?

Which is exactly what happened when we joined the Common Market in the first place. What happened then is what will happen now - companies will either adapt to the new circumstance of go under.

Companies will close and new ones will open - it's the cut and thrust of business.

You lot can post as many links of sad-faced hapless fools complaining about filling out forms etc as you like. They had plenty of warning of what was coming, that they have failed to adapt is on them.

Please explain the benefits.

We're no longer part of the "United States of Europe".

Please explain the benefits of an independent Scotland.
