I know ex-pats in 6 different EU countries. They are not selling. I know EU citizens here and in the UK. They are going nowhere either. It's all bollocks. Oh FFS Woolster it's not bollocks to the folks leaving! At a certain time of life the very last thing you need is worry and uncertainty. Comprendez?

No it's just usage. I'm here. They're there, so ex-pat means they've gone from here to there. You're very hard work sometimes. I appreciate the difference between the two and the highlighting of it is part of your liberal training. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manxman1980 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 1 hour ago, Manximus Aururaneus said: The referendum was promised in the Conservative manifesto, the general population voted them into government on that manifesto, the promise was kept, a 'con' as you state would have been to renege on the manifesto promise. The fact that you personally are 'not in favour' does not make it a 'con' - just something that you do not favour. It was included in their manifesto to stop the party disintegrating and losing seats to UKIP. Cameron gambled that the referendum would be to remain in the EU and he lost. 23 minutes ago, pongo said: But it has citizens. With rights.

If I recall correctly the EU was considering offer UK citizens the right to retain EU citizenship post-brexit on an individual basis.
