We think magazines are expensive enough, @WildAtlanticWay .
Is your sister not going to visit you after Brexit???
Brexit is the single biggest nightmare to happen in my 53years on this planet!
I have made a new home in Ireland but after Brexit, there is no certainty and I feel very anxious about what will happen to my family. If we are no longer European citizens, we will have no right to reside here and our status is unknown. Many of my British friends who have Irish connections are applying for Irish citizenship.
We do not want to return to live in the UK but we may have no choice as we haven’t lived here long enough to apply for Citizenship. My husband receives ongoing treatment/support for cancer following his diagnosis 5 years ago which is due to a reciprocal arrangement with the U.K./EU. We cannot afford to pay thousands for treatment/medicines so what will we do? We moved here to the south west coast for the lack of pollution and DH has been much healthier since living here.
My husband took early retirement from his work due to the illness and we’ve already seen almost a 20% drop in our income since 2016, simply due to the Pound plummeting against the Euro.
After Brexit, we won’t be able to drive on a British driving licence (because we’re not classed the same as visitors to Ireland with UK driving insurance cover) so we’ll have to apply for Irish licences but until we know what our legal status is, we can’t really do anything! DH and DS passports have recently run out, but again, there’s no point paying for new ones if they cease to be valid after March.
Its all very well the politicians saying the relationship with Ireland is special etc. But the fact that they can’t even resolve the situation of the border in NI shows how utterly incompetent they are.
This idea that crashing out without a deal is perfectly fine just shows the complete lack of awareness and critical thinking on behalf of a minority of Brits.
Sorry, I’ve gone on a bit of a rant there.
