May I ask, at what stage do you think we'll run out of certain medicines? Britons will have to pay €7 (£6.30) every three years to travel to EU countries, as a consequence of Brexit. The European Commission has confirmed that while UK travellers will not need a visa , they will need to apply for and buy another document. It is called an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) and although not launched yet, is expected to come into force in 2021. The travel requirement is not just for the UK but for many non-EU countries. Duty free will also no doubt become the norm again. Certain medicines will always be available they may cost a bit more then again they may not once the finer details of a trade deal are sorted.

Pans Jambo Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I will finally be able to buy that dream house I have always wanted when 1/3rd falls off house prices. Then I will be able to take some time off work (probably quite A LOT OF TIME) when the business goes (or moves to Eire). My pension will be worth a lot less than it has been of late. No need for all that money in retirement. Its just a waste. My kids will be looking forward to camping holidays in beautiful Scotland as we wont be able to afford European or American holidays due to sterling crashing but the silver lining is that we actually enjoy the pissing rain & midges. Should be quite a boost for the grow your own vegetables brigade when the price quadruples in the shops though & IMO, that is a positive. Gets folk out in the fresh air tending to their garden veggie patch. It will also be nothing if not entertaining when the tories start stripping away our human rights, workers rights and selling off our NHS to the yanks. That should be good. Finally, when the great unwashed eventually WAKE THE FECK UP, I am looking forward to a landslide YES in the Scottish Independence Referendum to finally escape from these racist, xenophobic, Narnia/Unicorn fools.

Don't think so.

Trips from and to the UK are already subject to passport control and at some European airports the queues can be long. Who knows we may get back proper duty free!

Well, the aforementioned likely dip in house prices won't be all that great since I just bought in August. But, I'm cautiously optimistic it does just as I said and it ends up making it easier for me to find a job post-September 2019. Then again, it could go exactly the opposite way, the shortage of labour gets balanced out by a bunch of companies going belly up, thereby getting things into equilibrium again, just with a shrunk economy.

maroonlegions Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Tory Brexit. Positives?? NHS sell off to private health care multinationals. Jeremy **** has done the damage already. Workers rights, pay and working conditions at present protected by EU law, ripped up over time. Human rights, slowly stripped away, after all some in high places think we dont have a right to human rights, just ask the CEO of Nestles who has said on record that WATER is NOT a basic human right. UK becomes a low paid workers prison, an Island for the exploitation of low paid slavery workers and a very expensive way off life. The death of the Tory party is a real plausible outcome of Tory Brexit, that is my only positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
