Makes sense as the Leave voters were disproportionately the older & retired ones ..

The ones it impacts are the younger generation who again, disproportionately, wanted to Remain.

This was a April Fools prank, it didn't bother me as I'm getting those carp stars off my numberplate buy getting a St George flag to cover them.

I don't think the colours of the passport was a concern for many brexiters and that the few who do seem obsessed with it, probably the same people who want to go back to imperial units, are unrepresentative of other Brexiters. I think it would be a symbolic indiction of the future if we went for a bold redesign as opposed to going back to the past.

It's just a minor area I think Remainers can start to have input on the country we want rather than worrying about the last battle.

IIRC This kind of thing happens a lot. The seas are disputed so they move into our waters and we chase them off. The press is more alert right now because they're getting excited at hyping the prospect of a conflict with Spain.

Wake me up when the FT has a pro Brexit story.... or the Express has a pro Remain story.


All these publications have an agenda, and choose stories to propagate that agenda.

Free movement of people from the EU to the UK could be extended after Brexit, Theresa May has suggested.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-39498647

The Govt. has woken up to the fact that ending free movement would be a disaster for our economy and be the final coffin nail in the NHS. Not that Theresa needs convincing anyway, a remainer. This is shaping up to be a cosmetic Brexit i.e in name only. It's still going to cause a lot of damage whatever, as the Govt. doesn't seem to have time for anything else.

Carry on Little Englanders ! (Shame Kenneth Williams & Sid James ain't alive, it would have been a fantastic addition to the series )

More anti-brexit nonsense from you Mr K.

I really think you struggle to read properly and absorb stories as they are written. Or you just see a headline and are too lazy to read what it says in it's entirety.

Again, you're not putting across the story you have linked to, properly. The story actually infers that the will be a transitional period after Brexit. But the government will still implement border controls in due course.

Good to see you're back out of 'naughty corner' Mick

This country needs immigration, the NHS depends on it; the Brexit shambles is hitting nursing numbers badly already. https://www.theguardian.com/society/...record-numbers

Quote:
The number of EU nationals registering as nurses in England has dropped by 92% since the Brexit referendum in June, and a record number are quitting the NHS, it can be revealed.
