"Shaun Cromber, who voted for Britain to leave the EU in 2016, told Global247News: “Yes I voted out, but I didn’t realise it would come to this, my application has been rejected and we are on our way home – the wife is in tears, she’s distraught if I’m honest and I’m not too happy at the prospect of returning back to the UK."

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I don't feel sorry for them. A lot of Brits in the Cost del Sol flew under the radar, doing cash in hand work, not paying any taxes in either Britain or Spain, but being able to access health care in both countries. Erhmm there'a word for people like them...Hmm

My parents lived in Spain yet could be quite racist when they visited home...typical 'using our health care, taking our jobs, having their own shops' horrors.

If I ever wanted to light the touch paper I always called them 'immigrants' and made comparisons with them 'using the Spanish healthcare system for major ops, eating only in British bars, meeting only English speaking people' etc.

They just couldn't see it! ( and voted leave!)

Serves them right. People are so stupid not to have an inkling of the implications. Didn't they pause to wonder about their status in Spain.
