countries 'accepting' refugees also corelates to the countries that the refugees have chosen,so yes the bordering countries first then a 'fan' out from them

We ordered curry sauce would you believe and after 2 attempts it never arrived and the store in UK charged us 30 for postage and even though the goods were returned to them would not compensate us in any way! Would not answer when I asked what they were doing with the returned goods! 

probably putting it on their chips

No apologies or regrets for use of terminology. 

It is clear that there are many Brits in this forum who hate the UK. The reason is that the democratic vote conflicted with their own interests so instead of coming to terms with the UK leaving the EU they attack the UK for everything they can, in a way a kind of childish treachery . Yes that I c...

...onsider spiteful. 

I'm attacking the EU establishment, not the people of Europe. 

yes strange isnt it, they made their money in the UK to enable them to now live in Spain but hate the UK and what is going on in the UK when really it has nothing to do with them

Hartcjhart, you know nothing about people’s circumstances, so don’t make irrelevant comments. Why has what is happening in the uk “got  nothing to do with them”?

Where I chose to live, and where my business interest lies can be different. It’s just Brexit and the “Little Englanders” have tried to prevent freedom of movement. Some of us qualified for citizenship in a different country, it used to be quite straightforward. 

It was a close call between France and Spain for retirement, in fact many friends were surprised we chose Spain, having lived and worked in France and the ability to speak the language. 

Enjoy what you have. You made your choices, my choices don’t affect anyone else.
