But that really matter? I mean we're going to go through a painful Brexit with nearly half the population not having voted for it? Sure, more did but.....
How often does Gibralter get to vote on the matter?As so much time has gone by it's accepted that we rule it, but is that really right? Land grabbed during times of war should really be returned? We not want control given back to us from the EU, should we therefore be returning land that didn't once belong to us?
Just throwing thoughts out there !
...and then there's the Falklands...what else ?
Ceuta and Melilla? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceuta_and_Melilla http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14114627

As a Greek living here 14y, must say Mays' speech last night was right. The European media outlets and politicians from across all corners are trying to meddle with our elections, and even left wing broadcasters have some punitive ideas regarding brexit.
The same hypocrites who got their degrees in this country.
Imho the government should announce that they reduce the naturalization fee from 1300 to 300 for all EU citizens who are more than couple of years here and earn at least the minimum wage p.a.
And simplify the damn form which is dozen of pages big and has to be filled with pen.

Why would they? They (the EU) literally have no vested interest in who is in Government here.
They even said from the start the election outcome would make no difference to the negotiations, particularly as Teresa May has been banging on about a majority giving her a stronger hand.
are you seriously that naive?

Huh? No, we tried to do the same there? If memory serves me right we were forced out and rightly so. again, the USA was not ours either but an attempt at making it, or at least some of it,ours.

Explain to me how it benefits the EU to be negotiating with say, Labour over the Tories? Or do you seriously think that they fear Teresa's mad skillz so much and want Corybn in because he will be a pushover and pay them €100 billion for no reason.
Civil servants don't change when the government does...
I thought I would hunt for the video now it has been a while. I have found it. I wouldn't recommend reading the express at all so just go to the sky news video. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/79...e-movement-for-European-Union-free-trade-deal
Absolutely. They need another agreement in place like Switzerland (limited free movement) or Canada (no free movement) has. It does make it easier to get a lot of trade deal in place quickly if necessary. With laws already aligned it should make it a lot more straight forward.

It doesn't. But what is true, is that Labour is still within the S&D grouping in the EUP, which would give them at least some clue as to what was going on and an informal forum to press for a more favourable treatment from like-minded politicians. Something May's party lacks thanks to Dave's wish to be a winner against Davis in that ancient Tory leadership battle nobody recalls now. Indeed, the accumulation of unforced tactical errors due to domestic politics will probably costs us as much or more as any lack of a clear plan.
To live there more than 3 months all EU nations require a residence permit and to demonstrate no current or pending criminal record. New EU members can not go unless they have not fulfilled their very limited quota numbers for those countries. This currently applies to 3 EU countries. Switzerland are trying to widen this to apply to all EU nations also.
Their agreements apply where the laws are aligned. There are parts where they aren't aligned so not included.

How anybody could seriously vote for UKIP now they've shown how utterly shambolic they are without Farage as leader, is beyond my comprehension.
Couldn't organise a knees-up in a brewery.

It shows the old quotas have gone. Looks like a formal piece of paperwork now for a permit. I imagine criminal records still bar you from the country. I'm not surprised they voted to reintroduce quotas for all nations. Still not managed to agree it with the EU though. That could backfire on them in an election.
Seriously? They had one recognisable politician and one popular policy, neither are involved in this election. Now they are firmly back to being the BNP in a suit and are shedding support like a snowman in the sahara.
It's a biometric residence permit so a bit more than just paperwork.You'd imagine, so can't evidence it? Or explain how their rules differ from what EU27 members can do?
And formal piece of paperwork for a permit? What was it before, a stuffed giraffe for a permit? A formal piece of paper for a permit means a permit.

Their star donor and only MP have departed! They dumped their lady leader; punched another semi-intelligible hopeful out; now Nuttall thinks his CV is a work of art, in between his active professional football career and burqa fetish. Why bother!
