Brits in Portugal stuck in ‘post-Brexit limbo’ with no access to healthcare and restricted freedom of movement
“I am feeling more like an illegal immigrant at the moment", one expat living in the country said.
The UK is the first and so far only country to have left the EU and Brexit was and is the withdrawal of the United Kingdom (UK) from the European Union (EU) and the European Atomic Energy Community (EAEC or Euratom). The official withdrawal was at 23:00 31 January 2020 GMT (00:00 CET).
“I am feeling more like an illegal immigrant at the moment", one expat living in the country said.
The comments may stick in the craw of those caught up in the chaos at Dover a few weeks ago.
"The latest insanely bonkers interview given by Brexit Opportunities Minister Jacob Rees-Mogg is the most graphic example yet that he has taken the entire country for fools. Watch in disbelief."
Rees-Mogg also blamed Paris for the “French-created delays” as he was played a clip from 2018 where he was clear that “the delays will not be at Dover they will be at Calais”.
"You're stuck in 2016 La La land and haven't been listening to the industry in the 6 years since," tweeted Dr Mike Galsworthy.
"The legacy of our outgoing Prime Minister is not that he got ‘Brexit Done’, but that he is leaving a large number of other matters unfinished."
"Honestly you really can’t make up the twisting and double standards from Rishi Sunak well done for the best fact checking."
The arch Brexiteer said he was "wrong in the right way" about how Brexit would impact Channel crossings.
"I often wonder whether, in the privacy of their own homes, they replay the claims and promises they made and compare it with the outcomes delivered."
