I drove to France last week and despite what the anti-Brexit scaremongers on here said……

Not sure anyone is seeing your posting history as any kind of a benefit, let alone a Brexy one.

No remainers will Charlie, they'll read them and say nah nah nah nah nah. Just like earlier when someone comes on and spouts about our position in the world declining since brexit, when I provide evidence to the contrary it's nah nah nah nah that's not paying my mortgage.

It's a long game, but make no mistake, in the short term, the EU is doing worse than us, Germany is in recession and has been for a while, we're not (yet), the Dutch govt has collapsed and the PM is leaving politics over their inability to solve their migrant crisis.

It's a ****storm out there and it's going to take a few years to recover, but UK is holding it's own and leading the way on a few fronts.

Several on here won't like that, it's not what they want to hear.

And you were surprised it wasn't busy at the border?
:rolleyes:
Oh, it's because of school holidays that the borders are busy now, is it? Funny that, I thought all the anti-Brexit mob on here were saying recent jams were because of Brexit. At least it’s accepted (by you at least) that there are peak periods that cause disruption. A bit like rush hour eh? How strange. Whoda thunk it? :rolleyes:

He is also forgetting schools throughout the UK break up from first week in July not just 21st
 
mottie has of course left out the fact that his trip has cost him a lot more due to the crash in the pound since 2016...

But apart from that, what he claims to be the case now is at best no better than what existed before...

And of course he can only stay in the EU/EEA for 3 months out of every six months, and cannot work there without a visa...

As is now the case for his children/grandchildren...

I wonder when mottie will come up with a single brexit benefit?
Who goes away from uk to work in Europe???
Apart from major multinationals in Germany paying a good wage, everywhere else there's no work, unless you're prepared to work in slavery conditions and pay half (or more) of your magre wages in tax.
People leave Europe to come to the uk for work and good conditions.
I am one of them, so you're hearing this from the horse's mouth.

A couple of weeks is enough for me and 99.9999% of the U.K. population. No one rule for anything is fit for all.

and cannot work there without a visa...
Which is reciprocal and one of the main benefits of Brexit.

If my children or grand children want to work in Europe, I hope they will need a work permit just like they would need to work anywhere decent in the rest of the world. I had to have one as well as a health chech and health insurance when I worked in South Africa and I saw nothing wrong with that - we should have it over here. I wouldn’t want my children or grandchildren to work anywhere in a black economy that pays pyss poor wages along with pyss poor unregulated working conditions.

You do know that c. 11% of our economy is "black", don't you?
 
You do know that your progeny don't have to leave these shores to be exploited, don't you?
Yes, I do. My post was in reply to Ellie saying that they would need a work permit if they wanted to work in the EU. Your post was just nitpicking and irrelevant to the thread topic, as was Ellals.
 
I wasn’t held up by the French border control/passport staff.
Don't tempt fate
I didn’t need an international driving permit
I didn’t need a green card for my insurance
I didn’t need a EHIC card because that had been replaced with a GHIC card
I enjoyed free roaming on my mobile.
The result of the oven ready deal, which shafted the country on tne important issues of trade.
