This is no holiday in my book.

You can't beat Blighty in good weather. We may not have it at the moment but give the country a week and it'll come right.

No, I just thought their headline was trolling generally.

I did say this affects Non-Schengen areas, that in my post you quoted and as I understand this, no we cannot use the EU border gates now because of this new rule.
Pretty sure you can, otherwise what would be the point of them? The stronger checks are still at EU gates. Can we really not use them?

tbh I went a month or two ago and the passport control at Eurostar was already much longer than other times. At lot of this might just be that plus the massive load of tourists now the summer holidays have started.

I have no need to wait until we are out, I have no desire to visit any where in Europe any time soon. This won't bother me in the slightest.
You should go, Brexit or not, Europe is a pretty amazing continent and we're right here.

Where is easier to travel to overseas outside the EU now even with these enhanced anti-terror measures in place?

How does it make us safer? We don't live in the Schengen area.

Deutsche Bank’s most likely Brexit scenario foresees shifting about 4,000 jobs to continental Europe from the UK over several years, according to those briefed on the planning.
The bank will transfer most of the positions to Frankfurt and Berlin when the UK quits the European Union, the source discussing internal planning said, who asked not to be identified.

What about the new jobs? What about the increased trade with the rest of the world?

Good luck with that prediction. You do know it's August, right, and the kids are on holiday?

They and that don't matter. For some people nothing will compensate for leaving the EU. The UK could be twice as well off with half the unemployment and they'd still only find something negative to say about Brexit. Thankfully the referendum proved they're in the minority however.

I would describe myself as positive yet realistic.

I would say Andrew gives a balanced view and has presented both pros and cons of Brexit. It's unusual for posters on here !

Totally agree. He can't help it if there are more cons than pros.
