Hi Thanks for the very impoinformation
Luckily I’m an Irish passport holder so apart from the mess in Ireland which is huge, when it comes to living in an EU country Brexit isn’t as big a deal for me especially any fear of ‘deportation’ as you put it
Of course I would never consider working without paying my dues I never have in 30 years of being self employed
My intention is not to earn a living here in Spain but to just keep myself busy.
My Grand parents moved to La Manga in 1968 and lived their until they both passed so nearly 50 years and the two lessons that where hammered home to me where do not sell your property at home to fund a move to Spain and do not rely on working in Spain to fund staying there.
It looks as though I’ll have to keep myself busy some other way.
I have looked into the Brexit problem at the time when I voted to remain and recently when I considered buying a property and I believe the financial relations between Britain and Spain which is huge and I’m not just talking about tourism and the expat input there are other financial transactions between the two countries which run into tens of billions and that will be protected in anyway possible.
Talk of big changes, things being very different with things like residency and deportation for over staying are in my view wildly exaggerated the change will be minimal and talk of it being any other way are just plain irresponsible.
I’d also say that will not be leaving on the 31st and with each day chances of remainers forming a coalition and winning an election grow by the day.
