Current Affairs EU In or Out

Japan isolated itself from the world until 1854; within 40 years of it being forced to open up (By the good ol' US of A, no less) it became one of the most belligerent nations on the planet, and is still (to date) the only country to have suffered nuclear attacks.

But they're now the world's 2nd biggest economy, so that makes it alright.

They were still 'loonies' when they were isolated, though.

Japan is doomed as a country due to its low birth rate.

All the Brits on holiday abroad in the EU will no longer be entitled to free healthcare

well done lads

Switzerland and Iceland are outside the EU and still have access to the EHIC.

Will EU folk be able to enjoy the NHS?

So many questions...

Well seeing as they live until they're 168, they can raise their pension age...

Will you guys be able to enjoy the NHS?

We have a reciprocal agreement for healthcare with Australia, too....

Not for much longer.

That's where all your doctors and nurses will be

Off topic, but the blue here is about as centre as a right wing party gets. They're good for this country.

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it. Generally speaking, and historically as well, National has been a party operating around the fulcrum of the left/right see-saw. And has enjoyed my vote as consequence.
But there has been marked shift to the right under the stewardship of John Key. Schisms in our society are opening which he is either willfully blind toward, or is aiding and abetting.
I had more than ten years of direct business interaction with John Key...and from that personal experience, I can assuredly state that he is not a man 'good for this country'.

Are these Ex-Pats returning?

Expect many more , if they can get in, as the devalued pay rates will not keep the British and Irish nurses any more

I get what you're saying, but most Scots I know already feel like they don't have any power in London.

Neither do we in the North West, the vote has shown how out of touch MPs are with folk.
