Brexiteer MP says his 'French-speaking' dogs should be able to keep free movement rights

[editor]

Just listen to this absolute bellend and the smug response by that underfoot excrement Gove.

A Brexiteer Tory MP has urged the government to let his dogs keep their freedom of movement rights after Britain leaves the EU.

Bob Stewart, the MP for Beckenham, said his "French-speaking" hounds crossed the Channel regularly on their EU "pet passports".

Millions of Britons are set to lose the ability to live and work freely on the continent at the end of the year as a result of the UK's departure from the bloc.

But animals may also be affected, with no direct replacement of the pet passport scheme yet agreed and the future uncertain.

"Our two French-speaking dogs cross the Channel several times a year on a pet passport," Mr Stewart said during a parliamentary debate on Brexit trade negotiations.

"And on their behalf, and on behalf of all other dog owners that take their labradors... on behalf of all pet owners who take their dogs abroad on a pet passport, can I ask if there will be similar arrangements after December 31?"

French speaking dogs? Prick.

 

[killer b]

I think he's wanting to be able to carry on taking them on holiday tbf, rather than retaining free movement for dogs altogether.

 

[Pickman's model]

just dump bob stewart (but not his dogs) in the middle of the channel. allow his dogs to travel to and fro to their hearts' content. just not with him.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

So if I can speak French I still have freedom of movement?

 

[maomao]

I hope his dogs bite his dick off and run away.

 

[MickiQ]

Most opponents of free movement don't want to end their rights to go there but end other people's rights to come here.

What I think they want are people not to come and live and work here without restriction. . something the government can just implement for the most part without brexit anyway. . . they just didn't. People here illegally will still be, brexit doesn't fix that. All brexit does is fuck up our freedom of movement and free up the tories to implement loads of shit the EU would not allow.
I HATE IT.
And they want dog passports. FFS. Really not the biggest problem.

Those of us who support animal rights should be fully behind this. Whatever your views on Brexit animals should be able to roam

Indeed.

Labradors speak Dutch.

 

[Orang Utan]

French dogs say Ouaf Ouaf

 

[Sweet FA]

Or wouf wouf if they're poncy Parisian hounds.

The also roll their eyes and switch to woof woof if you try and wouf back at them

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Unless the dog is wearing a beret and puffing away on a Gauloises it's going nowhere.

 

[planetgeli]

Indeed.

Labradors speak Dutch.

Dutch Labs are great. Really good ecstasy.

 

[Favelado]

I'm a human who speaks Spanish and Portuguese so give me my fucking freedom of movement now then.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

that's just barking

 

[Sprocket.]

that's just barking

No, Beckenham.

 

[Wilf]

So if I can speak French I still have freedom of movement?

Je ne sais pas.

 

[two sheds]

So if I can speak French I still have freedom of movement?

No, I think you need syrup of figs for that.
