    Course not you utter prick - very few people rely on their state pension

    They save lots of money to spend in sunny climates

    Like Spain and France and Greece and Italy
    British pensioners in Spain worry Brexit could force them to return to UK

    "It is often assumed that British people who retire to Spain are wealthy and spend their days sipping cocktails on the verandas of their luxury villas. While this is true for a small number, the vast majority are not wealthy. Instead they moved to Spain to make their limited retirement income go further because of the lower cost of living. "

    "In the meantime, the maximum British state pension of around £480 a month is barely enough to cover living costs and is low by European standards – in comparison the Spanish state pension averages around €900 (£790) a month"

      He's a Brexiter. Logic isn't one of his stronger points.

        Are you chronically obese? Do you have some kind of genetic issue? Missing a leg?

        I wouldn't be slating people's health with a 35 minute 5k time.

          Very fit actually. 5 pounds off my 18 year-old weight. 20-25 minute 5K time. Swimming every day. Couple of drinks at weekends only.

          You?

              Go for a walk at lunch time. It'll do you good. Even if it's only round the pub.

                Not any longer, you’ve taken that choice away from them.

                How much money from their savings do you think they’ll have left once they re-enter the housing market (either rent or buy) in the U.K.?

                Do you think they’ll be happy or not so happy with cretins like you taking their sunny retirement away from them?

                    They have the right to remain in that chosen country after Brexit, just not moving between the other 26 EU members.....or did you miss that bit?

                    Unless you can come up with some figures for expat Brits, who retire in 1+ EU member states.....you have no point.

                      I don't carry a psychological baggage around like you do, the endless need to affirm self by labelling everyone as less. The constant othering.

                      But then I appreciate that your upbringing was challenging, what with your father being made bankrupt, losing the family home, having to leave school, the shame.
