Spain tightening border crossing from Gibraltar.

Visa applications and Dee for 90 day travel.

Fair enough.

"Britain should give it back just like the falklands problem solved "

You're right. Simple.

Do the people there have to become Spanish or Argentinian? Do they have to live in another country as immigrants? Do they have to leave their homes and come to the UK?

Are the Spanish going to give back their colony on the other side of the straits as part off the deal?

Give the falklands back to who? Spain? They were never Argentinian. Argentina only went for them because they were on the brink of internal collapse and the best way they thought to unite the crumbling country was to project outwards and try invade. Also, what about those on the Falkland Islands and Gibraltar, it should be their say

I think they did have a vote a few years ago for people in the Falkland Islands, and the vast majority wanted to remain in Britain

The problem with NI is firstly it’s both Catholic and Protestant and reunification would put the Protestant population in jeopardy and secondly, a lot of British defence and ship building is made in NI. Even if the Protestant population was guaranteed safety, Ireland would have to compensate Britain in many, many, many £Billions to remove the defence and ship building industries.

Guaranteed safety from who exactly....do you honestly think all the ‘protestants’ are going to be lined up and shot, or turfed out of the country ?

Ireland would have to ‘compensate’ Britain... FFS Britain would be only too glad to be rid of the place, it must cost them billions just to keep the place up and running....

Ship building industry ???

I think that ‘ship’ has long since sailed...

We cant "give the Falklands back" as they were never Argentinian to start with. Discovered and abandoned by Spain. Later occupied by the French and then "sold" by them to UK.

ALL of this before Argentina as a country even existed! Check your history?

It's good that Spain are strictly enforcing it's border regulations though, and that there will be stricter EU measures in place though, right?

Thousands of jobs ? Hundreds more likely. And anyway... what does it matter, if Boris’ trip to India is fruitful, soon you’ll have thousands of Indians working in the UK... so much for ‘taking back control’

Exactly - countries should be respecting agreements and Spain is only following the agreement that became necessary when the UK left the EU.

I am sure that everyone is behind the Spanish exercising their Sovereign right...

You said reunification would put the Protestant community in jeopardy,like they were going to be victims of genocide.

This is just wrong.

The only violence reunification will bring will be from loyalist and their paramilitaries.

No, they are applying the rules that they apply to everyone else.

Why would we expect anything else?

Good that they're applying tight border controls though, right?

Yes, there are the agreed travel regulations that they apply to all non-EU member states.

We probably could negotiate something else, but we didn't.

We will have to apply for a 90 day visa in the future as for travel to the US.

That's what border control looks like. We're all for that, right?

Even if the Protestant population was guaranteed safety, Ireland would have to compensate Britain in many, many, many £Billions to remove the defence and ship building industries. "

Yes, this is an excellent distraction and waste of British tax payers money.

Do Rwanda get a say in who stays there?

It doesn't matter if it makes sense, the only point is to whip up support from the right wing of the party and to distract from Johnson and his pals partying and laughing while British people died alone in hospitals.

By and large, it's working.

Perhaps it would make more sense to have the UK border moved from France to the UK and scrap the Le Touquet agreement.

The UK press (and many on here) continue to complain that France does nothing to stop migrants so why keep it if it is so bad?

Once in the UK, an immigrant can then be properly vetted as to whether they are illegal or not whereas, if they are not physically on UK soil, the UK appears to be able to relinquish any responsibility.

I posted this in one of the the Rwanda threads,

Some information of what current and expected (but still unknown) policy is and some precedents from The Briefing Room on Radio 4

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0016hfv

The UK has arranged a process where you can only claim asylum in the UK, but there are almost know routes to reaching the UK to do so.

The solution would be to set up application centres in countries near areas of conflict and process there.

If unsuccessful there is no point in traveling as the entire appeals process could be carried out and if you fail then coming to the UK doesn't help.

Far better to give neighboring states the means (with the "hated" foreign aid spending) to build local economies and absorb these people closer to home so that they can return when it is feasible.

Instead an expensive system that is likely to fail but sounds "tough".

Regardless, you do welcome Spain enforcing control of its borders, right?

What is surprising is that some seem to forget that the Gib border was actually shut for a long period whilst we were in the EU. No matter whose border and where they should be correctly controlled, surely that makes sense.

My understanding is that there will be some e-gates available (for adults as everywhere) but manual stamping is still necessary.

A little bit of an Portuguese advertising campaign perhaps?

"Britain should give it back just like the falklands problem solved solves NI too...

The problem with NI is firstly it’s both Catholic and Protestant and reunification would put the Protestant population in jeopardy and secondly, a lot of British defence and ship building is made in NI. Even if the Protestant population was guaranteed safety, Ireland would have to compensate Britain in many, many, many £Billions to remove the defence and ship building industries.

What are you talking about ffs

The protestant would be in jeopardy from who exactly and for what reasons?

I await your no doubt very knowledgeable answer

Sectarian violence, sadly. "

So where there is violence in occupied lands should the solution worldwide be to give it back?

I have seen it on several outlets from both here and abroad and they say that the situation has changed and British visitors are now treated the same as EU visitor's. The independent says this can't be the case as they need to stamp passports so they know how long you are in the country. The daily mirror says Portugal is the first country to abandon manual checks' This would suggest no physical stamping of passports though maybe they have it wrong. I would have thought the e gates that EU and now British visitors use would be able to record when you enter . Maybe they are not capable of that. It does seem to be a conflict of understanding between the independent and all the other reports.

The independent says this can't be the case as they need to stamp passports so they know how long you are in the country. The daily mirror says Portugal is the first country to abandon manual checks' This would suggest no physical stamping of passports though maybe they have it wrong. I would have thought the e gates that EU and now British visitors use would be able to record when you enter . Maybe they are not capable of that. It does seem to be a conflict of understanding between the independent and all the other reports.

I guess we will find out in due course.

It doesn't change Spain's decision to control its borders being a good thing too though."

What country doesn’t control it’s own borders?

"Looks like Portugal are going to fast-track UK passports through immigration controls.

lots of outlets say it's happening though one paper says it's not so not sure who is right. Hopefully be made clear especially for anyone looking to go to Portugal. If true and it works for them then hats off to them

I may adopt "The Devil's Avocado" as my profile name

I know that we did, but a significant part of the Brexit campaign was based on saying otherwise.

I'm interested to know if those advocating this support it when border controls negatively impact us.

They don’t give a stuff as it doesn’t really impact on them. Neither does it impact on the elite as flying to their Tuscan villas is not made any tougher.

Even on this site, there seems to be no vocal support of the Spanish implementation.

Talking about Portugal and foreign colonies instead...

I hope it becomes clear one way or the other. Be an interesting experiment for them to see if they can attract more visitors. I think it's a very competitive industry so any little advantage would help
