New EU immigration regulations may lead to deportations

[Mistigri]

Article on new HO regulations concerning the rights of EU citizens in the UK:

www.freemovement.org.uk/briefing-legal-status-eu-citizens-uk/

On the face of it, these new rules would appear to give the HO the right to deport any EU citizen without permanent residency rights, who is not currently exercising treaty rights and who does not have private health insurance. This will include many EU spouses of UK citizens who are not currently working and cannot document a 5 year period during which they exercised treaty rights - regardless of the amount of time they have spent in the UK.

This gives a whole new slant to those HO letters suggesting that EU citizens make plans to leave. Might be time for affected EU citizens to consider legal advice :-/

(Weird and hostile way of opening negotiations with the EU27 over migrants' rights - I am coming to the conclusion that May may actually want the negotiations to fail).

Sorry but you don't make any sense at all...

Back in the 80's a child who had fled the Angolan civil war came into my class. He had been a child soldier and had fought and died alongside his family and was quite frankly regarded a hero

So he died? And was reincarnated as a refugee in your class?

Fought and seen family members die alongside him. That makes more sense and did to me at the time as a teenager as well as everyone else when we wondered how he come to be here.

no-one fleeing oppression chooses China,Mongolia or the USSR

I'm fond of this quote too. They don't choose the USSR because they'd need a time machine .

you are housing people who have deserted their Country, on no other basis other than there is free life to be had

According to redpoll, leavers will be perfectly fine with the above statement. Let's see.

I still see see it as the USSR as it still has that dictatorship ring to it.

Anyway instead of continuing re-quotes of mine but none of your answers, please give us all a reason why those countries are not chosen over the UK as a destination , I mean when fleeing oppression it should not matter where you end up just anywhere other than where you was-Agreed?

I await your justified reply?

It proves it in a nutshell when no-one fleeing oppression chooses China,Mongolia or the USSR as their final destination?

Apart from the mistake about the USSR, how do you know that no-one goes to those countries as refugees? It is not the sort of thing that the BBC is going to report, is it? Did you know that we have lots of refugees in Mexico, including people from Africa?

I like this too: so called housing charities

What do you call them?

(Still waiting all the definitely-not-racist leavers to come and defend the idea that Syrians are fleeing barrel bombs and mustard gas because they are desperate to come and sponge off the UK taxpayer).

And how are they liking it? Not to much I doubt. I expect they regret making that choice from a holiday brochure rather than a government policy document.

The whole argument is totally lost over immigration when the last stop is always the UK when you have passed through other parts of Europe in the process, and normally cost a lorry driver his house because 10 of them jumping in the back have cost you a 20k fine.

Any ways let's see the reason why the UK is chosen over such other countries in the Eastern Bloc as a final destination for those seeking oppression from other parts of the world- I don't know so I am hoping there are others that can.

A Charity backed by tax payers money..........That's all they are.

Then fight for your freedom first before you are so quick to run from it.
You might win.......... And get some respect when you arrive here if you lose.

Ah well, you have had your chance tonight let's see if we can get some answers tommorrow.

I am going to add North Korea to my list as well. Population density low, massive industrial infrastructure, in need of labour and not a long haul from Syria either.

AstroTurf, xenophobic, ignorant and utterly incoherent. With these Nighttime Posters you are really spoiling us

Misti I suspect there won't be any comment at all from the posters you're waiting for... (The Guardians of Tone who appear like Beetlejuice are apparently only summoned for perceived slights against Brexiters).

I still see see it as the USSR as it still has that dictatorship ring to it.
Assuming you mean Russia here, and perhaps some central Asian republics as opposed to say, Estonia?

Your comments about the Soviet Union, Russia, or refugees make it sound like you know next to nothing about the subject and are just trying to be goady. Please google about how many refugees countries like Iran, Pakistan and Jordan have taken.

While I make my mind up which one it is I am going to stop feeding you.

Elvira Don't worry he is off in bed now, won't be back until dawn rises over the Prairies at the earliest.

Elements This is not just racism, it is American racism.......

Refugees are special and distinct.
Fleeing horrors that (thankfully) most people in Britain couldn't begin to comprehend.

please give us all a reason why those countries are not chosen over the UK as a destination , I mean when fleeing oppression it should not matter where you end up just anywhere other than where you was-Agreed?

Other countries are available, obviously, and are also taking in refugees.
The refugees being talked about here are being taken directly from the refugee camps - not the ones that have made the journey across Europe to UK - so your comment makes no sense.

Not at all...!

I went to bed v early last night & have only just caught up on this thread.

Anyhoo, tbh I don't often tend to comment if other posters are robustly dealing with twats.

You post substance Semi, even though we disagree on Brexit you're not a Beetlejuice!

I don't know about prairies ron, I don't know if English is Redpoll's first language!! I have to read his posts about 4 times before I can get the gist of what he is saying. And I am used

Oops posted too soon - wanted to say I am used to reading and listening to mangled English living in a non English speaking country. Anyway am sure not of the remotest interest to redpoll but refugee stats attached by geographical areas.

Bananagio From the intellectual quality of his arguments I think it very unlikely he can get past mangling his first language, let alone a second.......

Elements, you are too kind!

I don't think it's a language issue but a confused thinking issue.

Still have not an answer though have we to my question?
So I will repeat for the benefit of those that need to catch up.
Why do refugees not try for the countries mentioned in earlier threads as opposed to the UK?

I would like to know the reasoning?
I mean from past posts on the poor merits of the uk such as weather poor, no jobs NHS and general healthcare a mess, no social care for the elderly really should not nake the UK attractive should it?

Or is it the reality that the UK is a free ride to anyone outside of the working class?

You did get an answer Redpoll.

I will handily repost it for you:

The refugees being talked about here are being taken directly from the refugee camps - not the ones that have made the journey across Europe to UK.

You see?
The refugees in question are not traversing Europe to get to Blighty.
They are being processed at the refugee camps - 'at source' as it were.
