      Sure Rita, Bob, and baby Wanita won't mind coughing up for extra euros for their annual trip to Costa whatever.

      Britons may have to apply to visit Europe under EU visa waiver scheme

        Oh my god, imagine having to go online and enter your details like passport, address and DoB in order to travel.

        A bit like this then?

        In other words, we already have to do this in the UK. You muppet.

          To be fair, we may also have to pay a £10 fee too.

          What emblem will the Scots use on their visa?

            I don't recall having to provide this information on my recent trip to Austria, France, the Netherlands, Belgium...

              You do know what the EU is? Or is that why you've avoided list only one country.



              I say the EU should set it at 100 quid plus a CRB check and a test. First question could be 'what does EU stand for?'

              That'll eliminate most of the 52%.

              Don't fell bad for them. They're getting their strict border and immigration controls that they wanted. They can holiday in good old sovereign Bognor.

                You don't if you are travelling from a Schengen country, which the UK is not.

                If you travel to Spain from the UK you have to fill this info online or you will be stopped at passport control and refused entry. So the only real difference is the £10 possible cost, which on a £3k holiday is going to make no difference whatsoever.

                  Parking in town costs more than that.

                    You want to widen your horizons a bit. Cuba is a great example of what happens when socialist theories overcome day to day realities. TBF, it was more Communist than socialist but worth a visit before the Americans knacker it.

                    I did have to provide this information to visit one of those nice islands next to the African coast that Spain governs. Traumatic. Must have taken me 30 seconds per traveller.

                      Spot on young man. It costs more to get a cup of tea and a sarnie on Ryanair flight. And having just been to Spain, they didn't ask for any payment at all.
