Anyway I look forward to your response and, indeed, sincerely hope that you're right about it being as easy for me to work in Europe post Brexit as it currently is. Unfortunately I just don't think that'll be the case. But hey - it's the future and none of us can really know - so we'll just have to see I guess
Hi Locodogz

Ain't that the truth and you are the first one here to accept the fact that none of us REALLY know what the outcome is going to be. It really is a wait and see situation irrespective of what others say. The choice is ours how we face up to it - stay miserable and negative, or look on the bright side because there is nothing else we can do about it. I remain very upbeat and will continue to be so no matter what is thrown at us or me. My country and the majority that voted us out of the EU has my full support.

Not true. None of us knows what the outcome is going to be but most of us are aware that the only uncertainty is about whether we're going to be worse off or far worse off.

That's the basis of the Brexit negotiation in a nutshell if you could but bring yourself to admit it publicly. But then, I suspect you DO know, hence the endless loser and zzzz responses.

Hey Sanctuary

Firstly can I say that I genuinely do admire your optimism!!!

You've kind of pulled my 'hey, its the future' line a little out of it's context, if you don't mind me saying. It was specifically applied to the 'freedom of movement/working in Europe' piece as I believe there may well end up being some kind of expedient 'fudge' in this area of Brexit.

As to the whole thing (and I know you won't want to hear this) but I'm broadly with Nigel on this. Every indicator that I've seen (IMHO) points to us all being worse off post Brexit, be that financially or culturally.

Doesn't mean we can't hope for the best, mind.....!
