Oh right- I assumed that's what you are saying. Apologies.

Either way, there's no harm in applying just in case it becomes more difficult to travel/live in Europe, which I would like to do at some point.

No need to be so aggressive.
How about you prove that only the Irish would be allowed free movement since you claimed it.

Only the Irish and other EU countries....... Presumably British people would need visa etc to live or work within Europe if they leave the EU

The truth is that on Friday if Leave win nothing will have greatly changed. Deals will be done, better deals for us. You won't have to use your Granny to travel. My son travels all over the world and never has any problems, EU or not.

I'm not talking about travel Jaxie, I'm talking about to live and work, of course we can still travel, but I would be very surprised if there wasn't a visa requirement for work and to live or people would have to become citizens of that country, take a test like they so here in the UK

My son's friend lives and works in Dubai. I'm pretty sure he will still live and work in Dubai on Friday. Pretty sure it will be the same for someone who lives and works in France. The world isn't going to implode on Friday, people aren't all going on a big boat home because they aren't welcome anymore. In fact the implication seems kind of ridiculous.

Sorry but I still like you, you may pet a cat just watch the one on my head she bites!

That is not what I am saying at all it will take two years for the UK to exit Europe so obviously nothing will change over night, but down the line if we do exit it will change, do you honestly think if the UK put controls on Europeans entering, that they won't receive the same treatment when Brits want to move to Europe?

So in the worse case scenario you might need a visa. Why is that such a big deal?
