Sorry but can you clarify? Who are the foreign citizens that can vote and to which election?
Ah, gotcha. You're a daily express racist.
Foreigners are less likely to commit crimes than British born people.
Can you cite your sources on that please? Sounds like you’ve been listening to Dacre, Desmond, Golding and Robinson
There’s enough housing out there, it’s just in the wrong hands.
It feels far, far worse now or maybe I'm just more conscious of it.
It's been splitting the Tories since we joined, but yep, the sheer hatred and anger on the leave side is so strange. I guess we kind of know why, deep down.
No he is correct. Commonwealth nationals (Aussies, Kiwis, Indians, Pakistanis etc.) all can vote too.
Didn't know that. Weird.
Its all those Muslims from the EU's fault.
Nevermind that leaving the EU is actually likely to increase immigration from middle eastern and African countries.

That's certainly possible. I think people who haven't lived among the poor and disadvantaged are baffled as to how people can be that desperate, living in a G7 country. It's a difficult one- I've had spells on the dole after both my degrees and the money really was a pittance. Despite that, I knew some long-term unemployed back home in Hull/E. Yorks who just did feck all, smoking weed and playing Playstation all day with no intention of finding work. The media obviously extrapolates that to all benefits claimants, when the thought that raising kids on dole etc...is a doss is laughable.
Only those with indefinite leave to remain, so essentially those who have emigrated here and intend to stay. People from those commonwealth countries who share our cultural values and history so why would the Brexiteers object to them voting?
The rule was brought in back in the Windrush era to ensure those who arrived to make a new life in Britain and help us rebuild post war felt a part of the nation. I'm sure the Mail will list all the potential Angolans, Nigerians, Kenyans and Virgin Islanders who can vote but the simple fact is that we don't dish out indefinite leave to remain to Commonwealth citizens any more unless the person ticks multiple boxes in terms of qualifications, wealth etc.
It's BS and they know it but it can always be spun as yet another reason how the liberally biased system does down the poor, hard pressed British man.
If I'm not mistaken, they are not foreign citizens.
No. They can start voting right after the land in the country.
No, I am not talking about British subjects. Anyone with a commonwealth passport is allowed to vote.

A substantial amount of EU doctors plan on leaving the NHS.

Seems only fair given the efforts the crown made to forcefully subjugate them under British rule.
From what I understand the people that you guys are talking about have the right of abode which means that they are commonwealth citizens which means that they are not foreign citizens. Which give them the right to vote.
According to the Public Accounts Committee, the Telegraph writes, there could lorries full of rotting food at ill-prepared customs points in Britain. Surely that wouldn't happen. Which sellers would accept cash on delivery knowing there's a high risk of not being paid and which buyers would pay in advance ? But what would happen if the customs are not ready ? Doubtless HMRC has everything under control ?
Only if they have indefinite leave to remain or unlimited right of entry which extremely few of the Commonwealth citizens have these days. Ask the Hong Kong Chinese who tried fleeing to the UK when we handed Hong Kong back to China but ended up taking their cash and entrepreneurial skills to Canada, America and Australia instead as the UK had pulled the rug from all bar a few percent of them years earlier unseen.
To get ILR or URE status takes up to 2 years if you are already married to a British citizen, 5 years if not and is becoming less and less likely to be granted unless you are a high net worth individual or fall into one of the desirable skill categories. Essentially that much vaunted Australian points based immigration system you all think we should adopt once we've stopped the EU interfering.
Its hardly scientific but ILR I found to be one of the more straight forward processes - now getting the temporary leave to remain for 2 years fist was a fecking pain but the ILR was essentially a tick box process at the end of that 2 years
The scary thing is that this is how some of them think.
I've made one mistake in my assessment of Brexit, I over-estimated the intelligence of Brexiters
What's wrong with globalisation?
It encourages competition and raises the baseline, which ironically the most capitalistic of parties have now come to hate because it exposes their own inadequacies in skill level and goes against their high opinion of themselves.
Good news for all Brexiteers...
March 29th 2019 will be hence forth known as 'St. Theresa of the Brexit' day and will be declared a national holiday.
100 years from now the ancient order of the 'Brexiteer Day' will be celebrated with street parties held up and down Britain to honour this glorious day, when with one bound and one glorious Act of the UK Parliament, Britain once again became a free and independent nation, in Europe, but not of the EU and once more there were blue-birds seen over the White Cliffs of Dover (at least those cliffs that hadn't fallen into the sea!)
or
if you come from 'remainer stock', you may be (secretly) building bonfires and burning effigies of the 'Maybot' and plotting an 85th running of the referendum, still hoping for a different result

It kills smaller businesses as everything concentrates up to the bigger boys, less accountants, less tech people, less legal people etc.
Less likely to pay their share of tax as they will register in a low tax regime or tax haven.
Less training of the workforce as skilled employees are sent in from other countries around the world, normally poorer and work for less.

100 years from now Brexit will be a hilarious chapter in the history books, where future students will read in disbelief how their ancestors were manipulated by Russia and rich toffs into self-destructing the UK economy. "But how could they have been so completely gullible and stupid?!" they'll ask. "Surely it was obvious that only a small handful of very rich people would benefit?!" they'll ask their professors. "Why yes, it was obvious." the professors will reply "But then again, nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the British public.".
What about end customer? If he's getting a better deal then why not?
When skilled jobs go it is a race to the bottom, though great for the shareholder and if you are comfortably retired, we can't all work for the state - NHS, Police etc.
So you're estimating it will be around 100 years before things are looking good again post Brexit, probably as per your original schedule though. i wouldn't bank too much on the blue birds over the white cliffs though unless it's an escaped budgie as the septics who wrote the song were unaware that bluebirds are not an indigenous British species.Good news for all Brexiteers...

It already is a race to the bottom, has been for years.
And that will be the first time anyone found something funny in a history book!
In that sense we can look forward to Brexit and its legacy, already benefitting mankind

Let me guess, you read the Daily Express.
I can't disagree with you there Stan but as a nation the Brits seem to have misinterpreted the conditions of said race and believe we should run it with our heads stuck up our arses. This whole thing is beyond a fecking farce and would be funny if it weren't likely to blight the lives of this and future generations unnecessarily.

!Hopefully St. Theresa's relatives will donate her 'kitten heels' to the nation, to be venerated in years to come as an ancient relic and displayed in Westminster Abbey!
or StormfrontDon't be so judgemental!
It could just as easily be the Daily Mail.
Well the whole world is a farce, especially where neoliberalism is rife, Europe for example. It just hasn't worked for many and a different course needs to be found, carrying on the same way is complete madness. So long as we turn a blind eye to increasing poverty and homelessness in the whole of Europe we'll be fine. What did a trading block ever bring those people?
What I want to know is why the UK voted to win said race.
Cos your mates gave them the opportunity to vote on it
So they decided to vote for relegation from the Premier League to the Championship, they thought the grass was greener but it's a tough life down there and it could take many years to get that promotion that they thought would be so easy.
I'm fairly sure this road isn't taking us where we need to go, so the obvious solution is to drive off a cliff instead..
