The French government is in charge of that. They haven't indicated it is in danger yet.

This is interesting: maybe Leave are not going to do what they promised on immigration after all?
I am not sure how influential this chap is but if he is, worrying for those that voted leave: Evan Davis Clashes With Daniel Hannan MEP On Newsnight After EU Referendum Brexit Vote Quote:

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
The problem is that different Leavers had different ideas of what Leave is. Hannan, like Gove and Johnson, aren't too fussed about immigration but rather the social chapter stuff from the EU imposing themselves on UK law. It's why Hannan has always quite admired something 'close' to what Norway do. I.E Pay for entry to the single market.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
I just read on sky news website that the 6 founding members are having a meeting to discuss UK leaving the EU minus the UK as they have EU related stuff to talk about as well and the UK can't be part of that anymore lol like we give a crap.
merkel went on to say that we wont let the UK destroy the EU. all I can say is take a chill pill we wanted to do it on our own we had or haven't shown any interest in destroying the EU. if the EU is that weak that it needs the UK to hold it together then it shows how weak the EU really was and we were puppets on a string. It shows how the other member states must have actually being laughing at us from across the water and now we have left it's turned into negativity towards us and they don't see the funny side now we have taken their toys away |
Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Given the news reported today that several countries are now pushing for an EU referendum, it seems likely that the EU may be diminished or may even break up.
Given too the massive unhappiness in the EU countries this presents the new PM with an opportunity to create a new purely economic trading bloc with countries that leave. It could be a genuine free trade area with no VAT, no Tariffs, no EU courts and no political union with immigration levels left at the discretion of national governments. We do need and welcome immigrants but the government would have to manage their countrywide distribution better as heavy concentrations of immigrants in one area tend to breed resentment. We also need to do a lot more to get the unemployed 5% of the population into a job because present schemes are not working. Part of that task will also be weeding out those who have no intention of getting a job and dealing with them. |

I think we are in a different position to Norway and Switzerland as we have already been in the Single Market. I can't see why leaving the Political EU should bar us from leaving the Single Market. After all it was the Single Market we joined in the first place. No I think it would have to be some kind of different deal to them. |

As long as they can point to freedom of movement as a 'necessary evil' they're alright. Economically I think the EU wouldn't necessarily be too opposed. The UK was always a bad fit, that politically incorrect uncle you hope stays in the corner at the family party getting drunk and not talking to anyone. |

Incidentally, I hear talk of people asking reporters when they have to leave. They don't have to leave, this is where the confusion is. On the news a Poll asked that question live to a reporter. She asked this because she didn't have a British Passport. Do any of us have a British Passport? Wouldn't know haven't renewed mine since the 80's. I'd say if you have a job you'll be safe. . |
Re: Post-Brexit Thread
It would be good to leave on good terms if the EU will allow us to.
It might help if the new PM were to announce:- a) we were still hoping to trade with the EU in some way without tariffs on either side b) we were not planning to expel existing working, law abiding foreign nationals c) we were allowing immigration into the UK within limits specified by the UK government This would demonstrate good will and relieve some of the anxiety felt by foreign nationals here. |
