Re: I'm a Brit, get me out of here!

Well there is the 'We must do dinner some time' thing, which translates as 'You will never hear from me again.' But I think that is common to the USA as well.

Re: I'm a Brit, get me out of here!

Helicopter parent is a term usually used of the parents of a teen or college aged young person, who takes an excessive interest in their welfare.

I think the financial requirements for family members of British citizens are unfair, and I have taken part in the campaign against them.

But I also think that freedom of movement in the EU is a...

Re: I'm a Brit, get me out of here!
