Articles like this are so disingenuous. UK news has been reporting things like this for several years now, always trying to make it sound like it’s us mean old continental Europeans who are forcing our evil rules on the poor blameless Britons. As opposed to being the exact thing they themselves voted for. Hello and fuck you from sunny Portugal, dear Brexit voters!

As a British person who spent several years living and working in EU countries before brexit and is now unable to - I don't think I'll ever stop being furious at the ignorant bigoted fucks who voted away the wonderful freedom of movement we shared with our neighbours. Useless slack-jawed gibbering wankers.

You have been permanently banned from c/Conservative.

LOL I actually had someone do that to me on Reddit. Saw some random post of mine they didn't like and permanently banned me from a sub I never once heard of.

I don't think it was the British people with French homes that voted for brexit...

You'd be surprised.

I personally know a guy who lives in Spain and owns a house in France, and he voted for Brexit. The stupidity here is ridiculous.

What did the pro brexit British people think they were voting for?

They unironically voted to stop foreigners from moving to 'their' country...

I personally know of two couples who did this. It's totally Leopards ate my face shit

Spain did this first and most certainly idiots living in Spain voted against their own needs because they really didn't think that there would be consequences.
