I have been blessed to have known a vareiety of people throughout my life, from those who have been propositioned by C-list celebs to those have suffered from terrible afflictions of the buttocks.

Our Passport Office which a few years ago was really efficient is now creaking to cope with the amount of applications from UK citizens.
My wife's (Irish) nephew missed his sister's graduation in London because his renewal passport did not get to him in time
This is another of those lies that we can manage a migration system by focusing on only "high-skilled" work, as though low-paid work isn't required as well. Indeed, the labour shortages at the moment are driving up inflation as much as any increases in demand.
I'm joining the queue....(Granny born in Belfast) ...
Edit _Looking forward to being Irish, eventually. My brother has been for decades. Sadly I didn't do it by 1985, so I can't automatically pass it on to my children though.

Labour are playing a dim game on Brexit.
They can’t suddenly go, this is a bad idea, in 2 years time.
They need to continually inform the public of the issues ( to avoid, they’re all the same aren’t they mob)
Labour are focusing too much on beating Sunak on PM question time, but not winning the argument with their target audience.
Kin explain to people why Brexit is a total crock of shiz.
Make every argument real for people, not a technical point.
This is what they have done, this is what we would do and why it is better for you.

Would they really buy it going that far back?
Sad state that my friends who like and live in the UK and have dual nationalities are thinking about either coming back home or basically back to the EU somehow unless things improve...
I mean I left but for honestly 100% selfish reasons that had nothing to do with Brexit, and I do miss it, but the people I keep contact with are... less than happy about the current state of affairs.
Well, at least Pete's happy I guess.

I honestly have no idea. It's probably easier in my head than in reality, my last memory of the process was when Jack Charlton was practically firing Irish passports from a cannon to anyone who could kick a ball straight in the early 90s

I'd like to leave Britain but not to go to Ireland.
France or Portugal I reckon.

I reckon somewhere South of France for me when the time comes.
Cheers. Think I'd have to go down the naturalisation route. An awful lot of trouble to get my freedom of movement back. Sounds mad, but it might be worth it. My wife is poly-lingual and an EU citizen, so could work all over the EU. This has huge appeal to us. I'm less talented (in general), but I could stomach being one of them folk who dress up in costumes and act as a human billboard or sommat.
I digress. I know I can move as the spouse of an EU citizen but it is loads more ball ache, not to mention it makes harder to move on if needed. Not to mention retirement, if we decided to go elsewhere it's now much harder.
Curse you Farage et al, curse you.
