It's not just acceptable. It's fucking necessary. Brexit wasn't some natural disaster. It's not Covid19. It's a choice. Doing it this way is a choice. They need to be held to account for every Brexit-related fuck-up and shit consequence.
It's a question of people having an informed choice, though, no? If you're given a vaccine, you should be told that there is a small elevated risk of blood clots before you're given it, if there is one, not find out after. This reinforces fears that the vaccines have been rushed.
No, if they don't like it, do something about it. If they're not prepared to do anything about it, then feel free to leave.
I don't necessarily agree with the outcome of the Brexit vote but it happened. If you're (not you, anybody) now living in a state you don't wish to be in, either change it or leave the state. I do realise that moving between places isn't easy right now but it soon will be, and anybody who doesn't wish to live in a state that isn't governed by EU rules should leave. It's a shite state of affairs but it's what it is.
Brexit didn't happen overnight.
I know. And it's not totally straightforward. Still a bit of a bummer though!
Absolutely, but whining about the effects of Brexit, so long after it's happened, is of no use to anybody. Shit or get off the pot. There's no point complaining that you missed the bus. Either get the next one or don't.
You can leave the UK with whatever you have in your pocket after forking out for covid tests but you can only stay for the permitted period. After that you need a residency then you have to have some proof of income, some states pitch it at the level of unemployment benefit and others higher. Portugal, where I am has always had a requirement for residency after the initial period expires. Tbh covid has had as big or even bigger impact, jobs are scarce especially with the collapse of the tourist industry and the restrictions on hospitality, and with wages, it's going to be a race to the bottom.
Unfortunately, it's going to be a race to the bottom no matter where you reside. The simple fact is that this is a direct result of Covid. Unfortunately, some people would have you believe it's a result of Brexit.
So people who have been negatively effected by brexit (such as losing their jobs) should just quit whining? By the same 'logic' people suffering from the effects of austerity should just 'quit whining' too and 'get over it'.
Not everyone can just move to an EU country. Infact, if you've been fucked over by brexit or poverty (or both) I'd say your less likely to be able to.
Have you lost your job due to Brexit? If you have, you have my utmost sympathy, but that wasn't my point, as you're well aware, so please feel free to take your straw man elsewhere.
I don't work due to health problems. Which means I'm dependent on benefits, and therefore am a sitting duck for the coming round of austerity caused by brexit and the pandemic.
I give lots of shits. What would you like me to do about the situation? Do you think that whining about it will change anything?
Yeah sure ya do
Sorry, I'm struggling to keep up with your edits...
I actually do. I give more of a shit than you could imagine. I feed homeless people. I do unpaid work for homeless people. I'm also about to be made homeless, but not because of Brexit, because of Covid.
What sort of things should we do?
I've also lost my freedom of movement to go anywhere in the EU to work, which was an essential part of my finding opportunities for jobs.dessiato has.
But you’ve lost your job in Spain as a result of Brexit?
