Punishing them for voting for Brexit, for Boris Johnson and for Reform. Serves themselves right.
Sorry for those caught in collateral damage.

My cynical view is that they are purposely allowing the conflation of asylum seeking and regular immigration so that the retards on the right don’t notice the overall levels of immigration and keep their tiny minds concentrated on the boats, where they seem to think everyone arrives in the UK.

Although not bringing in right wing policies and using your own experience of racism to shield you from accusations of a policy being racist would probably be even more helpful than coming off Twitter.

Then you would know that the UK offers EU citizens the right to visit for 180/360 days, which is rather more convenient than 90/180.

Not a good look, though, is it? And opposition parties would have a field day during the election campaign.

If you register for tax and residence in Spain you will not then be restricted to how long you spend in either of your homes. So you aren’t, actually, restricted from spending more than 90 days in Spain. You just don’t want the cost or inconvenience involved in doing so.

Do you find the sight women’s breasts exciting in the way that you find the sight of a man’s penis exciting? If not, you’re gay.

But what is the point of doing things that you profoundly disagree with just to ensure you get reelected? We might as well have a Reform government, or to have re-elected the Tories, if, instead Labour does the things that those voters approve of but which everyone else very much disapproves of.

That is the least of the problems that Brexit has caused for the UK and , whilst I have lots of sympathy for individuals caught up in it, British emigrants are not really our concern. You don’t live here, after all, so your rights are covered by the country you live in, be it France or Spain.

When the UK has lost 4 to 6% of its GDP to Brexit, where do you think that has gone, if not to mainland Europe?

But there is, supposedly, a secret agreement going back 70 years where the British airforce can enter Irish airspace for the purpose of defending it.

But doesn’t that refer to fur babies? Not that it makes it any less ridiculous but if you have a toy cup poodle that you dress in ribbons and carry around with you, saying that it crossed the rainbow bridge is a fitting conclusion.

This is the ideal problem for fixing on ChatGPT. Tell it the make and model of the washing machine and describe the problem, and it will see if anyone anywhere has posted a solution on the Internet.

So, basically, any country that you can get to the UK from without passing through another one. Iceland. Ireland. France. Norway.

I am not completely sure, but I don’t think you are being sarcastic. In order to achieve what you are saying I think MPs should earn £200,000, have no second jobs for money, and should not have to hussle for financial backing from businesses, unions or individuals.

But what about those who see adverts but on fast forward? For a start, it’s much harder to count the brown people.
