Glindathegood Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Can someone explain how the Brexit affects people concretely? I've been reading online from people who are from other EU countries who are working and living permanently in the UK that this will have a bad effect on them and they may even be asked to leave the UK? But if they want to live there permanently why don't they just become British citizens or apply for some kind of permanent residency? But I guess they want to have the freedom to move around to different countries without all the red tape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could take about two years, maybe even more to actually leave. So it'll just be uncertainty for the foreseeable future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glindathegood Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Someone said to me it's like if New York and California decided to leave the US. But I thought the EU was more of a looser economic cooperative thing so it's not really the same. The countries like the UK always still had their own government, so I don't see what it is they wanted to be free from or why they thought the EU was controlling them.

pieciolot Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 To apply for British citizenship you need to have permanent residency certificate/ card. You can apply for one after 5 years of legally living in UK. Next you need to pass English and living in UK exam for which u have to pay and then pay £1250 for the actual application. It's not cheap.

Glindathegood Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 But right now if you are from another EU country, you could just move there and work there without any special card or residency? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glindathegood Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Correct Got it! We don't have that type of cooperation between the US and Canada here. You can't just move to Canada from the US or vice versa. You have to go through a lot of red tape to get a work visa or permanent residency card.

Nessie Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I think the Queen Elizabeth apparently neutrality or even a bit sympathetic to the 'leave' movement played a big role on this result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
