      Follow the signs to the M4 or train station and you will get out.

        It was the 1980's - when the teachers weren't on strike, almost every lesson had some sort of Marxist slant. History was all post-colonial and the evils of the Empire, our Economics teacher was a communist, and even English Lit was an endless stream of socialist drivel. So yes, you could say I was occasionally "disruptive"

        To be fair though, some of those same teachers felt it was wrong to grass us up for going down the pub at lunchtime, so they didn't. As long as we stayed in the other bar, they left us alone.

          I think most people would like reasonable access to the EU, however its fairly clear most people didn't want the level of access that was on offer in the EU.

          A good visa system and we will be fine.

          Obviously that requires the EU to behave like adults. So yes we are fecked.

            There's no particular reason why a visa system should be needed. But there is already a visa system in place - it's called a Schengen visa. https://www.schengenvisainfo.com/how...schengen-visa/

              Your definition of good is not quite the same as other peoples.

              Unfortunately, there is no fixed answer to this particular question due to different time-frame policies of the embassies/consulates in different parts of the world. Nevertheless, it’s highly recommended to apply for a Schengen visa around six weeks prior to one’s departure, in order to make your trip as planned.

                The Independent has more detail about the basis Britons want to retain EU citizenship rights after Brexit – POLITICO
                The survey shows a total of 68 per cent of Britons would pay potentially large sums of money to retain the rights enjoyed by EU citizens in addition to their British citizenship.

                Among those who said they would pay, 58 per cent of them voted Leave in last year's EU referendum, The Independent has learned. Of those who voted Remain, almost four in five said they would pay to retain their rights..

                The full study has yet to be published, so we'll have to wait until then to see whether the sample was fair.

                  I didn't say it was good. Jut pointing out that it's there. Personally, I think there will be a visa waiver system in place.

                  Funny. You get the same advice when you're applying for your passport in the UK. Usually it's considerably quicker (last time I did it, it was less than 2 weeks). Typically, if all is in order, it doesn't take more than 2 weeks for a Schengen visa.

                    I asked for GOOD visa system. Yes I expect a visa waiver system too modelled on the US one without the Trumpifications.

                    The passport is identifying you to your country frequently without significant supporting documents. The Visa is taking the assertion your country will vouch for you and granting you access based on that as its all computerised 24 hours should be enough.

                      Yes you did. And you've attempted to demonstrate that the Schengen visa system isn't good, by showing some text about six week wait times. Aside from that very weak evidence, what makes you think the Schengen visa system isn't a good one?
