    Your personal experience really isn't the issue and doesn't mean Brexit hasn't caused problems.

    No man is an island.

    No, I'm not. That's you just trying to close down an argument as usual when pushed on your viewpoints because you don't have anything to offer.

    Having a different viewpoint/opinion, does not make me a WUM.

    We've lost something we might never get back, the right to live and work in mainland Europe and the right to travel across Europe without Visas.That might not matter to you but younger people have grown up with those rights of travelling through borders unhindered and they will not forget that.

    That was clearly tongue-in-cheek and a laugh with people I've spoken with for years.

    Still waiting for your answers and viewpoints? The fact you don't have any would suggest if anybody is a WUM on here, then that would be you...

    Try and discredit people whenever you are pushed on your views. It's all you have ever done. Such a pointless poster.

    I'm under 40.

    If I want to live and work in Europe, I can still do that. If I want to travel across Europe, I can also still do that.

    To work in Europe you will need a work permit to apply for a visa, to cross borders in Europe you will have to go through non EU passport control.

    Edited to include work permit

    I'll need to stand in a different queue. Seriously, that's a big issue for you?

    If I was to work in Europe I'd apply for a visa, same as a lot of other places around the world. Not understanding why this is a big issue.

    I believe in free movement, to you it seems unimportant.

    Your hero is on his soapbox right now so I'll leave you to luxuriate in his magnificently delivered speech.

    I don't want free movement. I have always believed it is a totally irresponsible thing that we got ourselves involved in.

    We've been flooded with cheap labour which has driven our wages down and it opened our doors for lots of criminals to walk right through unchecked. Making sure everybody is now vetted properly and only coming here for work instead of a free lifestyle is absolutely the way to go.

    The difference between the Conservative party conference and the Labour party conference is chalk and cheese.

    Conservative speeches are being delivered professionally, enthusiastically and the messages are also clear and concise. They're talking about what matters and what people up and down this country are interested in. They aren't being shouted down or heckled by their own members and look completely united.

    Labour speeches were all over the place. Different messages coming out from different speakers. Starmer was being heckled by his own audience. No clear direction in party policies and too much being made of minority issues that people were sick of being rammed down their throats a long time ago.

    No men in dresses have been seen fighting and arguing with real women in the women's toilets today, which is also a bonus.

    The biggest worry for me is that the Labour Party believe they can form a future government with that rabble.

    It would be a disaster for this country if the Labour party ever won an election in the state that they're in now.

    Fortunately, there's more than enough sensible people in this country to make sure that won't happen.

    Since Brexit that's no longer your right or your choice.

    You'd need permission which isn't automatically granted.

    If it is granted, on France for example, they'll insist you're fingerprinted, photographed, apply for a local driving licence, etc etc etc.

    We happily stabbed our own children and grandchildren in the back then claimed we'd done it for the fish quotas. ...

    ... as if we still have a fishing fleet worthy of the name <doh>
