Even during the Brexit negotiations, the EU offered the UK retain freedom of travel for UK subjects to travel to EU countries and vice versa, but the Tories refused. They didn't want people from the EU coming to the UK. As a result UK businesses that relied upon EU workers had to shut down. Farmers had to destroy their crops. Pig farmers had to cull their swineherds for lack of EU butchers coming to the UK. The Tories shot all of the UK (except for the fabulously rich like Rishi Sunak and Tory donors) in the foot!

And the thing that really irritates me is that the freedom of movement for those who have money has not really been effected as they can buy themselves visas- it’s the common worker who has really lost out….contrary to what frost says, it’s almost impossible as a Brit to work in the EU now…worst decision for a generation, Brexit

1. Youth can work & live abroad & most UK youth travel around the world, they don’t restrict themselves to Europe. 2. How many people go travelling for more than 90 days each year? 3. UK cannot make national policy for 1.1M (1.4% of UK population) just so a tiny number can go travelling in EU. 4. Turing education scheme is global. 5. FOM saw 9M migrate to UK, putting huge pressures on society, housing, roads & public sector provision including NHS. 6. When any country’s laws are 70% created overseas, said country isn’t in charge of its own laws, whatever anyone says to the contrary.

If we are in a democracy in the UK, why didn't I have a vote in the brexit referendum? I know that I have lived more than 15 years abroad, but this vote affected all UK citizens, not just those in a constituency. For myself personally, I was dictated to by others, that is not democracy.

The problem is that the ultimate power in the EU lies with the bureaucrats and not with the elected politicians. Whilst the people in power have no answerability to the electorate, then how can one pretend that it is a democracy. The politicians are elected but can be overridden by the unelected commission.

It doesn't matter if you voted for or against Brexit, fact is that before brexit we could go and work in the EU easily, now we cannot. Saying that it's now the same as going to work in the US etc is just trying to fog the issue. It is harder, that is how it is now. Looking past that, we were covered for emergency treatment in the EU before brexit, not now. I think the only thing that hasn't changed is having to show a passport when going there/coming back.

The UK is now in inevitable decline. Of course people will want to rejoin the EU and I expect that to happen. But it will probably take 20-25 years.

Of course, it is obvious that he speaks from the perspective of England in what it democratically voted for in Brexit. He has the gall to speak of democracy in the EU whilst not paying attention to the form of democracy within the UK when compared to within the EU. As such England is headed for independent self determination outside of any such thing as the UK. With the end of the world famous bi-lateral treaty, only signed between Scotland and England, that together created the UK (read the Articles of Treaty) in the first place, then it follows that the moment the treaty is revoked by Scotland the UK blinks out of existence in that instant. The UK is only the Treaty of Union, it is nothing else and the UK is certainly not about England despite what England may believe courtesy of Professor Dicey. Scotland's Schadenfruede for England's arrogant exceptionalism as its place at the top table of the UN blinks out of existence along with the loss of all UK privileges worldwide as an independent England takes its place beside an independent Scotland on the world stage on an equal footing. Wonderful and what they wanted in taking back control. That will be the mid to longer term consequences of a UK's built in Anglo-centrism where England believes the UK to be all about it. The reality will be somewhat different with the end of Scotland and England's famous treaty.

I work in EU legislation and she is, like most Remainers, conveniently ignoring the 'direction of travel' issue. The EU's control of member state legislation is changing and, as a result, more powers are being taken away from member states and centralised. If you extrapolate forwards 40 years, the EU's direction of travel over the past 40 years, there will be little recognition of individual states in 40 years' time - EU armed forces, common taxation, common pensions, centralised laws / policies etc etc are all likely to happen and much more. Our rights to travel and work in the EU are no different to those of Canadian, American or Australian etc citizens and I don't see those countries desperate to join the EU!
