I do believe that Spain announced that everything would remain the same and nothing will change for the current UK retirees in Spain after Brexit 

Could be ...but for the new commers ...that could be a different matter and only the old & neecommers they can only keep resident where they are staying ...other E.U. country visit is under the rules that will play that time ...And Gentlemen of the Isle THAT shall depend from which action the glorious Britain has in mind or action taken .....

I think you mean the otherway around and the rules might change for anyone that wants to relocate after January 1st 2020

and any action wouldn't depend on what the UK decides or doesn't decides

No, thats not correct .

Spain stated that they would keep everything the same as long as the UK keeps everything the same for Spanish citizens and the UK is keeping everything the same for Spanish citizens living in the UK ( now and after Brexit is completed )

Aha at least somebody who understand the game from " depending what you do to me , i shall decide what i do to you " 

That is what i meant earlier eith the ping-pong .....or can call it playing chess ...????

Congratulations Sanemax  your understanding is improving ....????

Pretty sure the EU will welcome us back in no problem. After all we will have got rid of the English nationalists and will be a progressive nation not North Korea by the Thames.

Not all, but certainly some were morons who thought the immigration rules would only apply to the pesky EU foreigners, who wanted to move and live in England.

Where do you get this idea that Brexiteers want to blame everyone for Brexit? I'm as happy about Brexit as I was on the day after the referendum. And I think this applies to every Brexiteer I see commenting on here. 

I think you're just projecting your own bitterness onto others tbh.

So anti democratic of them. You cannot change history, but if you are smart you can learn from history.

well billd766,

many are those who have had a go at changing history - and some have done pretty well

 

remainers or not, I don't know, but probably

at any rate,

quite some time has passed since Cameron urinated off after the counting showed a clear majority for Brexit,

time to saddle horses now and do the best out of it, in concerted action

 

it has taken quite some time, so far UK has reached the Brino stage (pretty much same as May deal),

but the Brexit stage may surface towards the end of this year if BJ sticks to earlier utterances,

(but you never know with politicians)

 

(seems trade deals might prove somewhat more challenging than many anticipated, (no surprise to me though),

 too bad for UK really - WTO trading is no bloody heaven - better than zilch though)

Brexit isn’t a disaster, in fact it’s starting off rather well. We new what we voted for and it will be coming by the end of this year.

Everything is relative.

We  don't, 

 

we consider British pensionners as unfortunate. 

 

But every country government decide by itself what rules and regulations they wish to apply to their citizens.

Ahh I see, I didn't realise the EU takes distance into account whenever they negotiate trade deals. I don't remember them measuring the distance to Ottawa and Tokyo previously ????

I suppose we will see more than that from the E.U. in the future. 

 

I think they will fight with any "weapon" possible. 

 

It is my opinion that the U.K. will do the same. 

 

We will have to wait how the relation between the E.U. and U.K. will "evolue". 

 

Sure is, both parties will claim :

"You started first". 

 

Or at least it is what we will, and are already, reading here.

 

Being selfish, I hope , the leaving of the U.K. from the E.U. won't change anything spectacular in my daily live, as the E.U. didn't and don't do,

so far.

quote "The New Thai Visa requirements will (Quite reasonably on this basis) require all retirees to speak at least basic Thai." Do you have confirmation of that in a link or something?

 

The problem with learning Thai is that it is a tonal language.

 

high tone,

rising tone,

neutral tone, 

falling tone,

low tone,

 

If, as most of us do as we get older our hearing gets less and if you are partially or completely tone deaf you will never really be able to speak Thai.

 

Many times I have tried to talk to my wife, son, friends in Thai, what I think I said is not what they hear. If you get some of the tones wrong, the sentence comes out completely differently and they look at me as though I am stupid, which in a way I am.

have you heard of the deaf woman with 19 kids? HUsband says do you want to go to sleep... or what? Wife says 'what'...

Moaning?

We are waiting for Brexiteers to explain how they are going to address the issues they have caused. Somehow you have convinced yourselves telling the truth and asking questions is "talking the UK down".

Brexit is already a disaster. Job loses and costs are mounting. The price we have paid is already higher than all the contributions we have made to the EU while we were a member.

Its just part of the "short term pain". 

Tell me. When will the "short term pain" finish?

Sorry, the New Thai Visa requirements bit was made up, a bit tongue in cheek I guess!

 

It was just to make the point about learning others languages, if we require the Immigrants to do the same. Quid Pro Quo (Which Trump kept repeating when someone taught him what it meant!) and all that tit for tat, level playing field stuff.

 

Thai is hard, and tones are challenging indeed. My wife has pulled me up for saying something quite rude which is only a tone away from something friendly, more than once! The verbs on the other hand are absolute heaven compared to English verbs, thank god I learned English in school!

take 2 likes for quote of the day ' thank god I learned English in school! '

We are the fastest growing EU G7 economy and our unemployment rate is the lowest it's ever been since 1975. 

Stop looking for things to gripe about and rejoice at our success.????

germany's ZEW index showed a sharp downturn in expectations with the economic sentiment component reading at 8.7, well below the 21.5 expected by markets, and the Current Conditions component reading at -15.7, which is well below the -10.3 markets had expected.

ING economist Carsten Brzeski says Germany is now in danger of becoming the "sick man of Europe" unless structural reforms and investment are undertaken.

We are not in the EU.

As for unemployment rates. The figures have been twisted for so long that they are now meaningless. If unemployment is so low why did Patel state yesterday that there are 8 million economically inactive people in the UK?
