You can't trust the EU it is a self serving bully. It screwed over small primary producing countries. Now this.

Nothing is stopping these people spending their money on the community, and they could spend it better than the government.

So this is where the term whingeing Poms comes from. They would moan if their arse was on fire. Wouldn't do anything about it of course, easier to blame others. Think not of what you can do for your country, think what can your country do for you. LOL.

I have no sympathy and you should look and hold accountable, both the EU and the UK official processes. EU membership managed by doing nothing. But even with Brexit the process could be easily streamlined. Easily!!! All electronic documents for a start.

You do wonder at people being surprised at significantly rich people getting their way more often. Just their interest and financial support alone puts huge sums of money in others pockets, impacts jobs and likelihoods.

You forget history. The world is all connected as we see by global warming and covid, and wars. But many countries have helped Europe in the past when needed and many countries face the same problems with the EU that the UK faces.

Typical Guardian, at its best. It seeks to ridicule rather than contribute. Lacks the understanding of encouragement to exceed expectations. Thank God (if she exists) that so many ignore such drivel. We have not one but many vaccines, in such a short time.

Stop trying to compete with the EU it's irrelevant. Just do your own thing. This is what you brought. Personal success, is not about a competition. Make your own decisions, live with them.

So there is a market for a redistribution business. These are deliveries from China that need to be repackaged and delivered according to instruction. Sounds like a great business for someone. This is what brexit is all about. Change with thought.

This is such a contrived thinking, full of bias, limited thinking, simply a political attack political agenda. It does not match the complexity of life.

I have been working in IT for 40+ years, starting with punch cards, now working with shared nothing distributed architecture. This form filling is just incompetence of the regulatory authority. BBC News - Brexit: 71 pages of paperwork for 1 lorry of fish.

Macron needs to get history book out, and figure out what countries of what geography, bought his freedom, at what cost. And who protects him now. Maybe talk to his teacher. Stupid man.

This was a narrow and elitist arrangement for a few, ignoring the sizable part of the world, and the breadth of what young need to be involved in. A gated community in effect.

We are facing the same problems in New Zealand. I suggest it is mostly a global covid problem, rather than a EU/UK problem, if you look at it broadly and objectively.

This is a good example of the Guardian trying to wind people up for their political agenda. Yes some problems with covid. But other than that people come from all over the globe to make the UK home. It is still a great place. My second home.

When I first moved to the US a decade ago, being British had some cachet. Since Brexit and Boris Johnson’s premiership, it feels increasingly embarrassing, writes Guardian columnist Arwa Mahdawi

This is absolutely the Guardian continuing a political agenda in a time of medical, financial and now with their efforts a social emergency. Their persuit of politics is literally dangerous, and fatal to the UK public.
