    No wonder we Brits living outside Britain feel let down by the British Government.

    Oh that’s a shame. Still it’s nearly Christmas.

    All the best to you and yours.

    This blog reveals that David Davis has ignored calls to meet from representatives of the 1.2 million Brits living in the EU27. I know this to be true as the organiser of BRILL told me so.

    No wonder we Brits living outside Britain feel let down by the British Government.

    Unpleasant comments from quittlings are expected in the next few posts!

    Surely your beloved EU wouldn't do anything nasty to you.

    Would they?
    If I don't reply to your post,
    you're probably on my ignore list.

    They can't because we now have God on our side:-

    It's so depressing to see that us leaving Europe will possibly lead to an increase in factional politics in Northern Ireland. Lets hope the Irish Govmt act on their threats to block an exit which takes us out of the single market or customs union.

    NI and indeed the whole island has been all about religion since way back when, which is as evident here in politics as in football or almost anywhere else in their culture. As an example., it is said that 90% of children in NI still go to seperate faith schools (Wiki).

    Increased numbers of voters in NI agreed with such sentiment primarily to keep Sinn Fein at bay. Surely that must at least hint at just how hated Sinn Fein are by so many NI voters - or maybe you would prefer Sinn Fein's version of God?

    I'd rather they keep God out of it altogether for the reasons you say!

    Your sincere Christmas cards must be a comfort to you if not the recipient.
    When quitters dismiss concerns of the poor, the unemployed, the left behind, Brits living in a foreign land, then I know them for what they are.....Home Counties, including Cheshire, Posh blinkered Conservitive voters with no care for their fellow man.
    Let me tell you as obviously you DO NOT live in the real world, that you are not a Brit who is an immigrant living in an EU27 country that you have no place in this debate.
    You have "no skin in the game"

    PS, sorry I don't know what part of Britain you live as you hide (don't disclose) that in your profile
    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    Actually I don't think they would. In the spirit of the EU.

    That is where I and you together with and other quittlings disagree. You support a government that has no or little interest in its citizens. The EU is founded on the principle of looking after the interest of it citizens.
    Presently I see no evidence that the above statement is NOT correct.
    At the moment I know David Davis together with the British Government has no interest in me. Strangely Barnier has made me feel that I am important to him and the EU.
    Sad but true.

    Given your post, are you not amazed The British Government have not considered the implications of Brexit on Ireland and consulted experts on how they can work to solving this problem.

    This Barnier? (No further comment required).
    EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier says he will 'teach the UK what leaving the single market means'
    Mr Barnier has said he sees it as his job to ‘educate the British’
