Brexit, that horrible word

[Barry former GA Advertiser]

I paid into the gb system from 17 until 54 before coming to Spain. More years than many who now reside in the uk. I come first in the queue, for once!!!!!

Fair point Barry

Maybe they should make all voting in UK based on history etc I would support that

[Corporal Jones]

I think people need to decide which hat they're wearing you cant be a resident of 2 countries how ridiculous.

[bertdove]

Has this claim been verified?  And what has this to do with Brexit?

Don't matter how much you paid in , you are not a resident and have no business deciding the future of us in the UK, makes me sick.

The law states that if you have been out of the UK for less than 15years and on the electrolyte roll before leaving you are entitled to a vote.

That should spark a debate.

There is a chap in Italy taking the British Government to court over not being allowed to vote because he has been out of the country for more than 15,years and if he wins a review the referendum may not go ahead in June.

Does seem bizarre anyone who moves into UK can vote and anyone who leaves the UK can vote .Surely that can't be right it's got to be one or the other hasn't it.?

The british man in italy just had his attempt to change things refused so referendum vote goes ahead as planned with the existing 15 year rule, which is a law initiated by the eu.

Just been reported on the BBC that the two Brits living in Italy have had their case thrown out by the judge, common sense has prevailed for a change.

Irespective of the legality,how people that turned their back on the UK for pastures new can think that its morally right to decide the future of people of another country is beyond me, talk about wanting your cake and eating it.Soon be crying foul if it was the other way round.

[Barry former GA Advertiser]

Just because we live in Spain, we are still british by birth, more than can be said for many in the uk.

[Ash]

I wonder how many people who will vote in the referendum have any idea what the implications are either way

I am assuming not because all the information that has been plastered across the papers and TVs has no factual basis

If the Government wanted to stay in they why did they ever offer people the chance to vote out.

Agree Victor, no residency , no say in the way the UK is run, how can it possibly be fair to be anything but.
