After 31st October they will not be allowed back in the UK and will lose their citizenship. Hopefully. We can replace them with some hard working immigrants. -
Why not stay in the UK?
As soon as you go abroad it is full of foreigners.....Leave a comment:

I've seen this one now 10 times on facebook, all claiming to be from a friend.
I used to have an international driving permit on a few occasions to rent cars abroad. Both car rental companies and the police did not have clue what this document was, they only looked at my regular driving licenseLeave a comment:

Driving back control
From a friend...
This afternoon I had the great pleasure of seeing how wonderful it is for Great Britain to “take back control“ in celebration of Brexit.I thought I would share my joy with you.
Having queued in the post office for an hour to be told that I had to join another queue as only one lady was trained to help me, I joined her queue to wait for 20 minutes.
The charming lady told me to join a further 10 minute queue for a photo machine as unlike passports it could not be a digital photo. Armed with my paper photos I rejoined a queue for another 30 minutes.
The lady asked me which European countries I would be driving in over the next year. As I will be driving in several countries I was thrilled to find that I had taken so much control back that I would need four international driving permits, each inscribed with details of the Convention on Road Traffic of 19th of September 1949; into which decade I definitely felt I had now lapsed.
A rather scruffy piece of card was then inscribed manually with my details. My photograph was glued into it. This process was repeated four times.
Having parted with £28 for the privilege of driving in Europe, I was thrilled to find that I could take back control and repeat the whole process and make the same payment next year; subject to increase by Her Majesty’s government.
As I left the post office I was overjoyed to see that the pound had fallen dramatically further today thus ensuring that I could feel even more impoverished than previous falls in Sterling have already made me.
Nevertheless, having reverted to a period of my early childhood when travel was so much more difficult, I will benefit from feeling awfully nostalgic while I drive in poverty through Europe, with my four antediluvian card passes.
I’m really looking forward to taking back more control on 31 October.
