Well, well, well. And to think about all those British emigres who actually voted for Brexit!!! It’s priceless

DISGUSTING!!! Tories you are signing the death warrants of your OWN most vulnerable citizens abroad! SHAME ON YOU!

This does not merely affect Britons, but anybody who receives or will receive UK state pension under EU soc sec coordination.

Do you think the expats will get better after 6 months?

We’ll need 1000s of extra EU-approved pallets to ship all that sickly gammon back into the UK after a no deal. Instead a few hundred thousand young, working, tax paying healthy Europeans we’re going to replace them with a bunch of fat wheezing racists on their death beds.

Fukk em they all voted for it

Prepare for the mass repatriation of the retired. The NHS and social services will be swamped by aged returning Brits who are unable to stay in their country of choice. And all for what? RevokeA50

So what about those of us on S1s who are NOT retired who still pay full contributions and tax in the UK? We’ll be expected to pay for insurance to access the NHS, contributions in the UK and insurance to cover our healthcare in France. How do I apply for my rebate

And yet Johnson wants the Thomas Cook directors to be held personally accountable for abandoning their customers abroad. Double standards? Surely not.

Then what?

Well that's about how long it takes to join the French health service. IF you've filled in right forms. IF you can prove you've enough income - although, ironically, you may not have to do that if not an EU citizen. Instead you'll need to apply for residency....more paperasse!

That may get their attention.

more scare

As opposed to the infinite time it lasts currently, by the way.
