The country is a shit show - why is there so little mention of Brexit's role?

[Neonskytonight]

That's it really.

Surely all our woes can't be placed at the door of covid and war - it is a good political narrative, but is it really true?

I'm amazed how little questioning by the media and public there is about the role of Brexit.

Who said you were "racist" @P00rKids?

Where do you get 3 seconds from? or 1000 passengers? how many UK citizens visit Mallorca each year? 2.3m! staggering isn't it? (2019 figure)

Dates have to be checked manually.. 90 days in a rolling 180 period, ink stamp done.

How do you propose "sorting it out"

I’ve has racist, resentful and now unaspirational. Oh I feel so judged, the shame

Oh no!! We will never ever be able to check people in at the airports quickly enough again. What will we do. We are doomed. And who the fuck is going to pick the farmers crops?

Im not a farmer, nor do I own an airline, but I’m sure the relevant people will “sort it out” if they want to.

So you don't know?

Like the i said......

or they’ll make a right song n dance about it, just to make a political point 😂

Who here called you racist @P00rKids?

How is ending FoM going to deliver that?

@TooBigForMyBoots you know u did

@Alexandra2001 you want me personally to find solutions to British Airways’ logistical problems. Sorry I don’t get out of bed for less than their business/financial directors/managers are on

I originally didn't ask you too.

Would be nice to think you at least had some ideas... considering its folk like you that caused these issues.

Passport control in Spain etc isn't run by BA or even Easyjet... and baggage handling isn't done by them either.... so don't go giving up your day job.

@Alexandra2001 ooh the worm turns. No I’m not an accountant

I could still come up with some “unprofessionally” sourced solutions over social media though if u like. Take some peanuts off the shareholders/directors to pay for your business to perform. Employ/Pay some staff. Packages to a smaller range of preferred destinations. Less flights/more full/less cancellations. I don’t know but there’s solutions iDVD u want them.

Or ... be obstructive or have a hissy fit

I don't think you know what that phrase means.

It means I’m not a person who sorts that shit out. The shit that you asked me to sort out.

Also someone who is arguing their point soundly, but then turns because they have no substance to their argument and are unhappy because they don’t like the sound answers that they have demanded be given

It means I’m not a person who sorts that shit out.
No, you sound more like a person who fucks shit up. 😀

Entitlement to EHIC has not ended.

For UK citizens it has. For anyone who claims that they have a new card, which I have, have a look to see what it calls itself. You will also find that what the G stands for is extremely restricted.

But like Brexiters it's hoped that in future.... blah de blah.

@Kendodd haha quite funny I’ll give u that, but very uninformative regards the situation. You haven’t mentioned any solutions or made any useful contribution. Not surprising, typical attitude really.

@Peregrina on a serious note what does my son lose out on with this EHIC then?

Where did I call you racist @P00rKids? Not only did I not do it, I didn't insinuate it either.

The EHIC used to cover the EEA countries as well as the EU and Switzerland, and the GHIC no longer does.

And my idea of Global is that it should cover other countries in other parts of the Globe.

@TooBigForMyBoots you know u did, don’t lie. The post on page 15 where u sent me bunch of flowers. I think you thought you’d demonstrated that I was racist somehow. I wasn’t at all. Trying to insinuate that I had demonstrated racism, or was trapped by your repeated questioning/demanding the answer to your pointless question of ... how has FOM benefitted you? Well I answered the question, honestly. The answer is not racist. If you weren’t implying racism, then your pointless comment meant no sense whatsoever. Full of shit - and a bullshitter 👍

@Peregrina thanks for the info there. Luckily he’s still covered there then phew

There were absolutely zero accusations or insinuations of racism from me @P00rKids. I had no reason to assume you were racist.🤷‍♀️

So we’ll agree to disagree there then.

Why DO u want to know peoples perceived benefits of taking away FOM then? You are so persistent I want to know your motive. So tell me?

I want to know what you were promised. And if you think Brexit is delivering on those promises.

My EHIC card is valid until November 2023. It will then be replaced by the GHIC. It will still cover the 27 EU countries but no longer Norway, Switzerland, Iceland and Lichtenstein. I agree that global was an unfortunate choice of name but we will still be entitled to cover in the vast majority of countries we were before Brexit.
