Zoltan TeglasIf you read Michael Portilloโs and others close to her articles and comments about this, you will find that this was not the case. A quick search on Google will confirm that she was very much a euroesceptic and opposed the Masstricht treaty and definitely a federal Europe. She even went so far as to publically speak against the reunification of East and West Germany.
AmbergrilloShould we presume that you are referring to the U.K. ?
Constitutional Court shot down the law today.
Hot off the press, the French constitution council have just scrapped the so called special visa for the British!
Interesting the down voters below re Jeremy P-S, must be more coffin dodgers reading the MDB than I thought.
Richard PearsonThatcher was pro Europe.
Why should any non EU country receive any EU benefits? Join the EU and pay the EU taxes if you want the benfits.
@RichardPearson please name 1 (yes one) benefit of Brexit. Oh yes ยฃ350m a week extra for the NHS ๐๐๐, lower net immigration, oh wait its nearly 1 million a year ๐๐๐๐, make our own laws (oh wait we are still in ECHR), economic growth down 4% versus staying in the EU, back of the queue for a trade deal with the US. 290,000 jobs lost to Brexit in the City of London, 1.8 million jobs fewer after Brexit, economy ยฃ180 bn worse off and the average Brit ยฃ2,000 worse off (ยฃ3,400 in London) last year re Brexit. Go on name me a benefit Mr intelligent.
Jeremy Ponsenby-SmytheI, and I presume many others, would appreciate if you didnโt use this forum to insult the voters who decided to decline being ruled by Brussels. It is rude and childish. And I certainly would not call Portillo (amongst many others) unintelligent, or, for that matter, Margaret Thatcher, if she had been alive when the process took place. You remind me of Hillary Clinton, and look where that got her.
I used to love coming to Spain. I don't own a property here, but used to come on holiday for a few months each year. The 90 day rule for total time in EU countries now means I'd Rather go to other countries, which have more relaxed visa rules. NZ,Australia for starters for my main holiday. I can stay there for the six months with out the worry of overstaying on the 90 day rolling rule in EU.
