That's what expect most of the bulletin board members to be saying regrading the appointment. Of our new board member
What source, 90%of people on here were saying that sort of thing and are still saying that sort of thing when we have a discussion about brexit
Makes sense. As a French-born person, he will be able to work both in the UK and in the EU after Brexit, whereas British-born people can't. So when we sign any foreign players we would have to pay extra for someone to work in that country. He can also speak French, so no need for a translator in 30 odd countries, many of which have decent players.
Good luck to him. If he doesn't do well there will always be loads of farmers in Lincolnshire who'll have him picking cauliflowers.
After Brexit, we (and non nationals will have do as I did fore the EEC/EU), which is getting a residence permit (no problem) and your employer gets you a work permit.
At the moment we have no idea what the post Brexit deal will be for EU citizens - the worst it can be though is the deal that the rest of the world have - Currently as you say above you get a work permit from your employer who pays additional tax to the government for not employing a Brit - currently £1000 per year I think but May wants to increase this to £2000 - not enough to put off someone (except perhaps BFC) hiring a foreign CEO but will kill anyone wanting to hire people who do the jobs most of us dont want to. Of course if we are serious about reducing net migration to 0 as some would have us do that will mean additional rules which will only allow someone to come to the county when someone else leaves but the economic consequences of doing that will be so devastating that I have to assume only UKIP would be mad enough to try and implement such a policy so it wont happen.
Gauthier as a boys' name is of Teutonic origin, and the meaning of Gauthier is "army ruler". (Bit of Kraut in him too ffs!)
You make assumptions that may or may not be valid after Brexit. We will have the same rights for the EU as other third countries, so will be on any terms that they wish us to be on. This *could* be a quota system, it could be a residence and work permit, it could be something different. This could also change at any point in the future as/when they decide to change it and we have no say in it. What I actually meant though, was that a French-born UK resident will have the right to work in the EU through his French passport without needing to do anything other than register for taxes. A British-born UK resident will not have that right directly and will need to go through whatever bureaucratic channels apply afterwards. British born kids of EU migrants will also probably have more rights through the dual passports to work in the EU than British born kids of Brits (especially those with one British and one EU parent). So thanks for making us third class citizens in our own country.
Just because people voted for one thing does not mean that they will get exactly what they wanted. They voted to stop immigrants coming here, or for a bus with £350m and the NHS on it, or some other reason. The result is that their kids and grandkids will have less rights than the children of the immigrants they wanted to stop coming here in the first place.
