It will not be seen as the result of exterior consequences but solely the politics of one single party and a few dozen MPs. RIP UK!!!
The majority of people in UK voted to leave the EU and we must respect that decision. The majority of people in Scotland, Wales and NI voted against leaving the EU. The devolved parliaments have been ignored by Westminster. We are clearly at a cross roads. Getting back to the original post: Independent Scotland, Wales & NI would almost certainly ditch the draconian UK rules which impede free movement of non UK relatives and essential workers, e.g. farm workers, doctors nurses et al. |

Are you attempting to blame SNP for Brexit? I do not think that is fair comment.

I am certainly not blaming SNP I support them, I simply mean that ironically Brexit has shifted the independence debate in favour of independence |

Re: Impossible for Expats to return to UK?
I believe that has always been the case for those who are married to a non EU national? Now we are leaving EU, it should come as no surprise that partners who are not UK citizens will require permission to reside in UK. BoJo is taking back control of our borders :-( |

No it hasn't always been the case, the income requirement for family settlement visas in the UK is a relatively recent requirement introduced certainly no more than 10 years ago.

Wales voted for Brexit.
About 21% (650,000) of people living in Wales were born in England, with nearly a quarter aged over 65. The country voted for Brexit by a majority of just 82,000. |

Same re UK state pensions really.
​​​​Are you of the view that those not already drawing their UK state pension by brexit date shouldn't receive one? If so why? |
