What I want to know is why so many European contractors are so bothered for us here in the UK? It's very kind of them to worry.Originally posted by Troll View PostThe majority of the Brits in the EU are affluent retirees plus a smattering of low grade itinerant IT workers who couldn't quite hack it in the UK.
The retirees will die off in the near term and it would be foolish of countries like Spain to cut themselves off from that source of incomeLast edited by The_Equalizer; 23 June 2017, 11:36.Comment

As the Mash is the only news outlet that makes sense in these troubling times:
Survive five years in this twat factory and you’re in for life, EU citizens told
Survive five years in this twat factory and you're in for life, EU citizens told
23-06-17
EU CITIZENS have been told if they can manage five consecutive years in the twat factory that is Britain, they can stay for life.
The generous offer means that after just half-a-decade of residence EU nationals would be fully entitled to work, pensions, NHS care and housing, none of which will at that point exist.
Marcus Büchner, a German living in Birmingham, said: “It is the same basic principle as the Hunger Games.
“Survive Britain, kill all those who are trying to kill you, abandon your civilised values and be granted a reward that could not ever be worth the price you paid.
“What terrible things will have happened to me after five years? Will I enjoy bitter? Will I support Aston Villa? Will I understand what the **** the point of Coronation Street is?
“Congratulations, Britain. You have called our bluff. Five years here would be an eternity. We will all go back to our countries that are nice.”Comment

That's the last thing the UK wants.

EU economic policy always favours Germany. When Greece needed high interest rates it got low ones as that was what Germany needed. And vica versa.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostThat's the last thing the UK wants.
