Your not wrong I'm pretty glad that thread is in the rear view mirror and getting further and further away. Clearly to have a thread without silly *** for tat battles you need to police it like what chips has done (also having a DA replant seems to have worked). I may try again closer to the leaving date when we have more knowledge available to us.(BIG MAYBE) Surely another positive of leaving the EU may be the resurgence of the Great British holiday and all your coastal resorts feeling the benefits. This is completely on account of how the deal works out as if free movement continues (or something like it) and we can still benefit from cheap insurance then there wont be but if you have to get a visa or something like an esta and then you maybe a small fortune in holiday insurance the cost keep adding up. As I said though it all depends on the deal.
I sincerely hope we don't need visas etc to go on holiday to Spain, France, Greece etc. If we do this is bound to hit the tourist trade for many EU businesses. I can see the sense in visas for emigrants who want to live and work within the EU, but not for your average Joe going on a fortnight's holiday to the Costa's etc.
I've started a new thread that hopefully is taken in the same manner. I really don't know what I'm doing but it seems to be working, strangely work is going the same way so hey ho let's run with it.
This Brexit thing is turning into a nightmare. Anything good that we ever got from the EU is being taken away from us, whilst every bad thing we ever got from the EU is being left in!! The fishing quotas being the latest thing...just when I thought that the price of traditional British Fish and Chips might actually go down once we left!
There is another thread for the pro remainers Crows https://community.screwfix.com/threads/brexit-what-do-you-think-you-will-lose.197666/
Just now jj is doing his best to destroy the equivalent post from a remainers point of view. Are any of you going to try and keep the peace?
That's fine jj, we all make mistakes. It's fair enough, a reasonable debate with both sides listening to each other is a bit of a rarity on here.
DA is so allowed on here and I'm amazed he hasn't jumped in yet, perhaps I forgot to tell my maiden to take the shackles and gimp mask off
I don't think we will need visa's but we probably will need an esta like thing to travel to Europe which if worked like an esta you will need to renew every 2 years. There will be an increase on insurance as well I assume especially for those with known health conditions. So places like Morecombe and Blackpool should see an increase in the amount of people vacationing there.
If British resorts are available then I look forward to: Good, cheap,wholesome food Really cheap beer Great accommodation Friendly people Short travel times All great benefits. Because if Morecombe and Blackpool are the alternatives - then I'd rather stay at home.
I actually went to Morecombe for the first time last year for a wee weekend and it was lovely. Got some great weather as well.
Well this thread looks like a breath of fresh air, gentle debate, reasoned discussion between intellectually mature adults, think I might relax here for a while. How are you doing filly?
