How's your EU residency application going?

Another one?

He did say a few pages ago he was sat in his second home in the EU (Spain I think) and was confident his access to health care would stay the same, so I would guess so.

For those that like a map. Understand Welsh Govt is refusing permission for sites

The Warrington one could be fun. Half a mile up a B road from the M6/M56 junction and nowhere to "stack" lorries apart from back on to the motorways.

Intended for lorries off roro ferries at Heysham and Liverpool - 200 lorries per sailing (?) and a capacity of 70 at the new customs centre (I've no idea how many of the 200 are heading for the EU).4 (It's an ill wind - the place is only available as it's the old coach depot for Shearings, who folded once European tours went down the Covid pan).

And an hour or two "getting through customs" will play havoc with drivers' hours.

Spain has already stated that it will offer a reciprocal healthcare agreement for UK citizens in Spain after Brexit but no details yet as to who will qualify. If they restrict it to people who were against Brexit, I'm sure we would all vouch for him (i.e. tell that inconvenient truth).

This is on top of the 7000 lorries a day queued in Kent.

Probably in this line from my post you quoted.

’You can argue the effect of that interference, you can even argue it made no significant difference, but the notion Russia gave the Brexit referendum a miss altogether is nonsense.’

I can also argue that Leave won because it lied and committed itself to promises that it could never keep and those lies and false promises are there for all to see. Today, the Govt very kindly published 138 pages of new regulations and customs procedures which expose every one of those lies. Instead of a free trade zone where nothing will change, we now have internal custom barriers, an access border in Kent and enough new red tape to choke a horse, and that's with a deal.

It is also only the beginning.

But it was ok for Leave to lie because Remain lied.
And because it was ok to lie, Leave cannot be held responsible or accountable for any negative consequences of Brexit.
QED.
Get with the programme!

The sensible thing would be to restrict it to ether those resident there on 31st Jan or those resident there 31st Dec coming - when we are out we are out I am sure Spanish people don't want British health tourists coming after that happens.

That’s pretty much what’s been agreed. With No Deal, anyone already with residency will carry on getting free health care but no guarantees for anyone getting residency after the end of the year. Hence the rush to apply for residency for anyone eligible, including the Brexit bullshitters exercising their right to hypocrisy.
