RE: Brexit - what a joke!!!17 Jul 2019 16:25
See below what uk negotiateed for the IOM which is not part of the UK
European Union
The Isle of Man is neither part of the European Union, nor has a special status, and thus did not take part in the 2016 referendum on the UK's EU membership. However, Protocol 3 of the UK's Act of Accession to the Treaty of Rome included the Isle of Man within the EU's customs area, allowing for trade in Manx goods without tariffs throughout the EU.[50] As it is not part of the EU's internal market, there are still limitations on the movement of capital, services and labour.
EU citizens are entitled to travel and reside, but not work, in the island without restriction. British citizens with Manxman status are similarly restricted from working in the EU.[51][52]
The effect of the UK leaving the European Union is uncertain. The UK has confirmed that the Crown Dependencies' position will be included in the Brexit negotiations.[53]:ch.5
Why can't phucking EU grant uk includingg phuckingg NI ssiimmiilar sstattus to IOM ?
I.E.
include us like the Isle of Man within the EU's customs area, allowing for trade in goods without tariffs throughout the EU but as we will not be part of the EU's internal market, there will still be limitations on the movement of capital, services and labour.
EU citizens are entitled to travel and reside, but not work, in the IOM without restriction so tthis hould bee tthe same for ukk wwhen wwwee leave. British citizens with Manxman status are similarly restricted from working in the EU so tthat should apply to uk wwhen we leave.
its just eu being phucking difficult to prevent a mass walkout of otheer member states because their holy grail of freedom of movement of labour will have to be ditched.
