Here's the thing. We've regained our sovereignty
"Withdrawal from the European Union is the legal and political process whereby an EU member state ceases to be a member of the Union. Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU) states that "Any Member State may decide to withdraw from the Union in accordance with its own constitutional requirements"

"Brexit was the withdrawal of the United Kingdom (UK) from the European Union (EU). The UK is the only sovereign country to have left the EU, after 47 years of having been a part of the union"

Filly is full of it!

Here's the thing. and already we're more of a force on the world stage.
Now filly is really taking the p*ss!

Most brexiteers are too cowardly to admit they made a horrendous mistake!
 
Not as horrendous as telling everyone on here "**** you, I'm off" and then finding out that you were not wanted in your 'partners' country. Oh yeah, and also, "After this post, I am deleting my account on here" .....and not doing it. How embarrassing is that statement? You must feel a right hypocrite every time you make another post! :LOL::LOL::LOL:

Poland has a right wing populist government
You forgot to mention the words democratically elected.
Western involvement in Eastern Europe never ends well.
The Poles and Hungarians and took the EUs money when they sold their countries sovereignty.
Perhaps they should have read the smallprint.

Back on topic. EU Roaming. As we have just sold our place in Spain, we have plenty of calls to make to the estate agent, banks, utilities, solicitors etc. To do this I've just got a free Lebara SIM card and popped in into an old iPhone 5 that was in the drawer. Runs on the Vodafone network. It will cost me 1p or 2p per minute to call Spain and a fair few other foreign countries. Oh, and if you convert £5 of your credit to a £5 monthly plan, you get 3Gb of 5G data, 1,000 U.K. minutes and 100 international minutes plus EU roaming is included.

Have you got a video?
 
sovereignty.
A word that these days is more or less a meaningless myth.

The Poles and Hungarians and took the EUs money
And actually did rather well out of it in terms of contributions against returns. ';) One of the ideas of the eu that could be called levelling up.In certain areas anyway.

Doing well so far. Spoken to the estate agent, the people that manage our community charges and the money transfer company and I've still got £4.94 credit left out of my £5. :LOL:
 
Mottie was wrong, always has been.

It's now project reality.

There are more and more empty shelves in the supermarkets and more items out of stock when doing internet ordering.

A lot of it caused by shortage of haulage drivers.

Oh and a shortage of fruit pickers
Nope. A year on and I’m still not seeing it. You never did get back to me to let me know what was missing from all those empty shelves in your supermarket. I’m going food shopping again tomorrow and would like to check them in my local Sainsbury's. Got that list ready yet?

Not Sainsburys, but Aldi have been out of capers for ages... :LOL:
 
I have noticed lots of things missing in Aldi. Cheap pasta, mayo, ketchup, oils, Greek yogurts, various frozen foods and various stuff from the middle. Oh, and some veg like lettuce and courgette and sometimes toms and spuds.
 
So the loons shouted it down as scaremongering and projec fear but o2 just announced the return of roaming charges.
And I predicted it wouldn't last for long before they all caved in! O2 is just the start of that. The others will eventually follow.

So, to recap so far,
O2 are no not charging for roaming
Virgin Mobile on the O2 Network are not charging for roaming
Smarty on the 'Three' network are not charging for roaming
ID mobile on the 'Three' netweork are not charging for roaming
Lebara on the Vodafone network are not charging for roaming
Asda Mobile on the Vodafone network are not charging for roaming
Tesco mobile on the O2 network are not charging for roaming
BT mobile on the EE network are not charging for roaming
Plusnet mobile on the EE network are not charging for roaming.
Talkmobile on the Vodafone network are not charging for roaming
Etc Etc. Etc.

As the 'loons' said correctly, it’s just Brexit scaremongering tactics. Didn’t work and you will see the other networks realise they dropped a ballcock and will triumphantly bring back inclusive roaming.

As usual the partial 'truth' from mottie...

NETWORKS themselves that are charging for roaming...

EE
Sky Mobile
Three
Vodaphone
VOXI

And they make up the majority of mobile users!

O2 is the only one out of the 'big four' to not charge.
