      They say they have caravans but in the UK they would be classed as proper homes. Take a large caravan, add awnings, add more covered area to be out of the sun and take up what would be 2 or 3 pitches in the UK. They would be called residential dwellings in the UK and they are so close they touch each other, some sites don't even have access roads. We took our little motor home to one of these sites in Spain, lasted a week and came back over the colls of the Pyrenees home to France. We have legal residence in France and have jumped through the hoops. Why could they not do the same in Spain.

Making them the enemy only because it was convenient for the politicians.

      Indifferent is the correct way.
      Indifference often happens to people who live in plenty and fear it and their privileges being taken away because too many people arrived to the party to share.
      Thus the rich and well off middle class are often very indifferent to others - not just immigrants but the working class at home and abroad in general.
      The truth is that we are animals at the end of the day - and all animals have a limited visual field when it comes to feeling about others, even other emotionally advanced mammals like apes, elephants, whales and dolphins.
      Civilisations and societal culture of mankind has fostered a funny opinion that humans are special thus "humane" is to be special - but in reality it's just what many animals do when confronted by other animsls as we can see from various wonderious examples of different animals bonding on UA-cam.

    I think the reason why some people feel disappointed about the policies they voted for is they didn’t think it would affect them. I am an immigrant myself. I chose Spain as my home. It is not a perfect place, but no country is. Due to my job, I encountered all kind of Brits Expats here. Some of them are like old Joe on the video. They feel entitled to live wherever they chose, not contributing in any way to the communities they live in. They don’t mingle with locals, they don’t bother to learn a single word of the local languages, they even have their own supermarkets, because they don’t want to buy “foreign” products. They even have the audacity and bad taste of commenting loudly how lazy Spanish people are to their perceptions, in front a waiter who is most likely working 14 hours a day shifts, six days a week, or complaining about how bad things work just because the world is not arranged to their convenience. They are deluded to think Spain, or EU needed more UK, than the other way around, and now they are paying for the consequences. Although in my opinion, they should be harder for Joe than they are. It is good they feel bad for themselves. No pity from my side. I am sorry though for all those who understood the implications, voted to remain on the EU, and now they have to live in a reality they did not want. But maybe this is a wake-up call for all of us. We all need to stop nationalistic, racist and xenophobic platforms from gaining support before is too late.

The ones that get me are people like my friends, who claim they wanted the 'Spanish lifestyle' They know beggar all about Spain and have never been out of this tourist place. Admittedly it is very low key, compared to some of the horrors along the coast, but 'Spanish' it aint! They claim to be learning Spanish ( from an English 20 something? Really?) yet they persist in speaking to everyone in English, rely on me to translate and say things like 'Why did he speak to me in Spanish? he knows I can't speak it!' Well maybe because that is his mother tongue and you are in His country? He doesn't speak English and why the F should he? He has never been there! You, on the other hand have imposed yourself on his homeland, so the onus is on You to learn His language, not the other way around? I will freely admit that I find languages very difficult, so I do understand their hesitancy, but they are not even trying any more and that annoys me.
      One went to a doctor recently. The doctor spoke no English, she spoke no Spanish, the doctor apparently got frustrated and 'rude' so my mate flounced! 'I was told they would speak English! Why can;t they speak English? ' Well, because they are Spanish, in Spain? You went to this woman in the middle of a pandemic, when she is probably stressed out and wanted her to be tea and sympathy and speak English? Come On!

      Firstly, we need proper PR so that there are fewer safe seats and every vote counts.
      Secondly, we need changes in legislation. The ethical standards of those in public office need to be formalised and be enforced by an independent body that has the power to penalise. Self-regulation requires high standards to work properly and if those standards are lacking !!!!
      Thirdly, I think we need antitrust legislation that limits the ownership of media that any one person or organisation can own.
      The fourth change I would love to see is limits on the ability of MPs to earn additional money whilst in office. Who are they serving, the electorate or those employing them? Equally, when they leave office should they then be able to take a position on the board of say a Bank?? This whole area, (including lobbying organisations) needs proper consideration. Currently, it is full of conflicts of interests and the misuse of charitable status by misleadingly named lobby groups. Needs a clean-up.

    As a (post war) German I am afraid my take on this may upset many Brits, including people on the "remain" side. And for the record: I am a strong supporter of the EU, despite all it's problems but most of our problems today do not end at a national border. Only cooperation, not isolation has a chance to solve them. But back to my opinion:
    While the brilliant (albeit misleading and disingenuous, playing on fear and gullibility) marketing of Brexiteers has a lot to do with the outcome, I believe the roots go much deeper and further back. Many Brits hang on to an illusion of bygone grandeur, to a time when "Britannia rules the waves", built a colonial empire second to none or invented the steam engine. Germans had to examine their own (Nazi) illusions of grandeur (and eventually did). I argue we came to an understanding of it and learned our lesson (forever, I hope). By contrast many Brits even today think fighting the Boers was the right thing to do, trying to massacre the Zulu was simply an act of war and to exterminate the Aboriginals was necessary when they did not want to voluntarily accept the British way of life. Please do not argue that this was the general "Zeitgeist" back then, so was the belief that measuring skulls proves superiority of "Arians" over Jews and other "life, unworthy of life"
    I am afraid that these (and other) poorly examined sins of British nationalism are a major reason for misconceptions about national sovereignty even today. I for one want England as a partner, critical of her sins, proud of her accomplishments, however I am afraid England will loose more and more standing in the world as long as a substantial part of British society hangs on to a somewhat prettied up and modernized yet qualitatively unchanged idea of superiority.
