So apparently my partner needs to login to a government website and generate a code that proves she has a right to work here, to give to employers. The code lasts for 30 days and has to be done every time she starts a new contract, which given the nature of her work means she'll have to do this quite a few times a year.

Yo, my application for Swedish citizenship has been approved!
Applied about two months ago, to make sure it was processed before any rush towards the December cutoff and the drawbridge was pulled up.
Next step is to read over the ID / passport application details on the Swedish police website.

- trooperbill2
so the deals largely done with 3 main sticking points
Level playing field rules - the EU gave canada a deal where they have to meet the EUs current rules. but they want the UK to mirror all current and future rules (literally one rule for one and another for another)
Adherence - the EU want the European Court of Justice to be the arbitrator of any future disputes - hardly seems fair
Fishing - having obliterated the UKs fishing industry when we joined maastricht in the 1990s, the french want to continue to fish in uk waters after brexit. im sure theres a specific deal to be done but what do we get back for that?
at least thats what the media seems to be saying
- oh forgot to say early on we were offered a canada style deal which the EU then took awaytrooperbill

For Hayoth and others who don't live under they tyranny of the EU but think they know all about it.
The EU is not wholly unelected. Proposals made by the EU Commission have to be approved by the democratically elected MEPs. Members of the Commission are chosen by democratically elected member state governments. I'm not saying that's a perfect system but it's far from how you perceive it.
The idea that the UK's laws are dictated to them by Europe is a myth. Have a look at the UK government's policy initiatives since the last general election and tell me that there we in thrall to a socialist dictator. The fact that we just held a referendum and voted to leave should give you a bit of a clue as to how strong the EU's iron grip is.
The idea that a European Superstate is inevitable is a myth. There isn't the political will for it to happen across Europe. The rise of right and far-right groups means the opposite is the case.
There are many things wrong with the EU. It is overly bureaucratic and and un-transparent. The Euro isn't working for the countries of southern Europe. It has huge, existential problems but it is a reality, and simply saying that it would be better if it didn't exist isn't going to get us very far.
Ultimately, it will need to reform or it will die. It might not have survived another recession. We may have just triggered that recession. If the EU is going to fail without causing a global financial crisis and political turmoil across Europe, it needs to be allowed to manage that death slowly and peacefully.
The UK and the EU are inextricably linked - whatever the UK's position in it. To think that pulling out like this will protect us from Europe's problems is insane. We've just exacerbated them and ours, with no plan and no thought as to how this affects Scotland, Northern Ireland, the rest of Europe, our own citizens, or anyone else, in the name of reclaiming a sovereignty we already had.

- @Gnash ^ this +infinitytrooperbill
- Examples of the current leadership sneering at the working class? Weren't they mainly far left union types and even pro Brexit in some cases?yuekit
- @yuekit, there aren't any (from the leadership).fadein11
- But look forward to seeing some examples.fadein11
- And yes Corbyn was behind leave for decades, but the right in the party forced a compromise which probably lost the election.fadein11
- Lol, you guys are are funny :)Gnash
- examples please?fadein11
- leadership not members.fadein11
- I'm saying there is perception and then reality. The guy who won is literally named "Alexander de Pfeffel." Real man of the working class there :)yuekit
- the UK is so different to N.America, our media is nearly all right-wing. It's v.different over here but I guess easy to think it's the same as over there.fadein11
- @yuekit, my comments weren't directed at you. "The Labour Party has been sneering at the WC for ages" directed at this nonsense. Members yes, leadership no.fadein11
- Yeah I was responding to Gnashyuekit
- Ya, I guess the wc abandoned Labour because illusions. That makes sense nowGnash
- You don't think the mass media can heavily influence people, especially when it's endlessly attacking one side over the other? haha cmon...yuekit
- It wasn't all that, mainly Brexit but a big factor. Apparently Corbyn's a terrorist. Absurd.fadein11
- To be fair, Corbyn is pretty far to the left and was always going to have an uphill fight to get elected. But many of the attacks on him were completelyyuekit
- ridiculous from what I could tell. I seem to remember right after he was chosen as leader there was a big controversy about him not signing the national anthemyuekit
- loudly enough at a ceremony lol. If the working class (or anyone) made decisions based on nonsense like that, of course they are not getting the full picture.yuekit
- Indeed yuekit. He wasn't even that radical, pretty normal across Europe but he certainly was painted that way. There were big problems though and as faxfadein11
- said it was a middle class university educated movement that didn't speak to traditional Labour voters esp with Brexitfadein11
- thrown into the mix. Ironic that years of austerity + Brexit made Labour heartlands choose a party that has zero desire to improve their lives.fadein11
- Even by European standards I think Corbyn was pretty far left, especially on foreign policy. And that may have been his undoing...it's one thing to have ayuekit
- someone like Trump get elected who is personally unstable but shares the same worldview as a lot of American military types. But Corbyn was willing toyuekit
- criticize Israel, question whether we should be selling arms to Saudi Arabia, ask whether the UK should be paying for nuclear arms, etc.yuekit
- Not saying he is wrong...he's probably right on many issues. But a worldview like that is completely unacceptable to a lot of people in power.yuekit
- yep for sure.fadein11
- Blair's foreign policy (Iraq, WMD, Kelly etc.) was seen as a massive betrayal to many many Labour voters who fled. Corbyn's stance on that was v.appealing.fadein11
- Especially after how many arms have been sold to Saudis for war in Yemen.fadein11
- By not that radical I meant renationalisation of railways and other infrastructure. Quite normal in Europe. And a smallish rise in Corporation tax, yet stillfadein11
- way lower than France and Germany. The railways should be a bigger scandal than it is. Most of ours are run by European nationalised railways at a huge profit.fadein11
- We as tax payers in UK actually subsidise nationalised railway services elsewhere in Europe. It's bizarre.fadein11
- There was some good stuff on offer but as you say he was always going to be a target of the establishment and our majority right-wing press had a field day.fadein11
- re: railways, as customers not tax payers I should've said.fadein11
- the media barely got started on him in truth. Not singing the anthem and looking scruffy IS a big issue, unfortunately. It's stupid but it is news.Fax_Benson
- The media destroyed him. But he was an easy target. Way too easy. It went way deeper than scruffiness and national anthems.fadein11
- Have you seen his brother? They stayed away from his ex wife and their split, his weird relationship with D Abbott. His public school bg.Fax_Benson
- They were more respectful of his private life than they were of Johnson and previous Labour leaders. Remember the shit Cherie Blaire got?Fax_Benson
- the media are fucking awful but Corbyn's treatment wan't out of the ordinary.Fax_Benson
- Abbott r'ship was mentioned a lot. He went to prep school and then grammar and also learnt that via the media.fadein11
- But yes I guess the targetted what hurt most, terrorist sympoathiser, anti-semite etc. But yep I know others have also suffered. The endless whiningfadein11
- from his disciples about BBC bias was highly irritating. If they had focussed more time on something else things may have gone a little better.fadein11

I overheard someone yesterday receive a telephone call, seemingly about some pre-discussed work, and the person at my end apologetically stated that they were holding off doing anything until after Brexit as they needed to "see what happens". Cue multiple apologies and guilty look.
A friend's brother is an estate agent and has laid off six staff as the entire sales market has ground to a halt, especially after the pound fell.
My own work has spluttered to a stop - I started off this year with the most enquiries I've had in the period for a good 5 years, but since then.. barely fuck all.
No one's spending.
I have a couple of friends who have businesses peripheral to mine and they're in the same boat. Everyone's just biding time to 'wait and see'.
I have two other friends - a couple, one half American, one half Italian - he can't get work because his industry (pharma) has stopped taking anyone new on, and they can't move to Europe because all their savings are in the bank here, in pounds. They're trapped and can't further themselves.

can anyone in europe or the UK speak to any actual change they've experienced from brexit?
brexit is interesting to me because it was a parallel to trump here in the states, but we've had massive evidence of his impact since day 1, an impact that to this day is reverberating. walking down the street, being in a crowd, going through entire regions of the country and the shift in experience is palpable.
so, do any europeans notice the loss of the UK? do folks in the UK notice the exit yet?
i ask because everything i say are op-ed screenshots or stories about regretful business owners, but not necessarily anything about how this policy shift has changed anything other than airport queues
