why is loss of freedom of movement in eu seen as a big deal

Stupid phone, should be eu

We have a seat at the table currently. After Brexit we may accept all the regulations, laws etc and have no say. How is that better?

I'll guess you have never had the opportunity to work in other countries, nor to work with colleagues from other countries.

Sad that your life has been somewhat limited in those respects.

Now the Quitters are seeking to limit the lives of others as well.

Thanks for raising that point. It's useful to keep the young citizens of this country mindful of the damage that Quitters are doing.

Actually I have lived in a few different countries throughout my life mainly because of family from and/or living there. You are missing the point I said if you were immigrating for a better life it is doubtful continental Europe would be on your list of places to stay.

EDIT: I am 24 which is probably considered young by most people's standards.

John It looks as if Mattrm sucked you right in there.

I have never understood the governments approach to citizenship of those that have settled in the UK after coming here under free movement.

The government should have automatically guaranteed full citizenship following article 50, to all those settled in the UK.

That though doesn't solve the problems that the removal of freedom of movement across Europe poses to UK citizens who may be in a relationship with a 'European', or any UK citizen who may do so in the future.

How do you grant 'citizenship' of the EU/EEA (as opposed to a single country) to the UK partner without continuing with the current freedom of movement that Brexiteers apparently hate?

The point made by Tigercubrider (regarding the 'auf wiedersehen' workers) seems to have apparently been forgotten by many of those in that region who voted to self exclude themselves in future. And because economic cycles vary between different countries/regions, who knows when they will be in need of 'work migration' again!

Personally I care not what particular country I am 'affiliated' to, because I have grown up with the freedom to 'roam' and the freedom to choose where/how to live in Europe. That right will soon be sadly taken away, and it matters not what citizenship either myself or my partner holds!

I read something Yesterday that a lot of Brits are going to Denmark.

I think I'd prefer France Spain or even Denmark if I spoke the Language.

I'm not opposed to international cooperation, but am opposed to political union and closer integration, which is the EU's aim.

In an apparent 'democratic referendum', NI and Scotland chose to stay in the EU.

So given the 'power grab' that Westminster is planning to achieve post Brexit, would you be opposed to those regions who choose to resist closer UK political union/integration deciding to leave the UK?

Question for all you Remainers.

Should anyone from the EU be able to come and settle in the UK as and when they please?

Simple Yes or no will do.

 

[SirGalahad]

Question for all you Remainers.

Free Movement: Should this stay as it is now and anyone from the EU should be able to come and settle in the UK as and when they please?

Simple Yes or no will do.

If you don't understand the difference between FOM and settlement as it currently is then your question is meaningless. You can have FOM but not Freedm of settlement.

Free Movement: Should this stay as it is now and anyone from the EU should be able to come and settle in the UK as and when they please?

Simple Yes or no will do.

Irrelevant, since the leavers have said no regardless of what remainers think - after all the 'people have spoken', haven't they?

So here's one for you: Does the UK currently have the right to restrict free movement/ILTR from the EU?

A simple Yes or no will do.

Ok I’ve changed it. Yes or no?

ILA ?

Changed what?

Ask the question again as you seem to have some nebulous idea of what the issue you want to discuss is.

Read it again

Took a while for you to understand the question you were trying to pose...lol

As to an answer to your modified question, then dependent on possessing EU/EEA citizenship and meeting requirements - yes.

How about you now answer my question!

Should anyone from the EU be able to come and settle in the UK as and when they please?

there is no plan to change EU rules to permit that, so your question is fanciful and irrelevant.
