How on earth did I manage to travel to the US, Costa Rica, South Africa and Thailand in the last few years? Last time I looked, they weren’t in the EU either... I must have been imagining those holidays.https://twitter.com/davidallengreen/status/1072398263360339968 …

And if your response is that the EU negotiated that visa free travel with those countries.... yes, and that’s precisely what they will negotiate with us after we leave.

Julia, there is a world of difference between a travel visa and a working visa. I recently spoke to a young American man who had a hellish time getting his work visa for UK, despite being married to a Brit. FOM works both ways. It is both a privilege and a right.

If FoM is a ‘right’ why is it confined to the EU by the EU? Why does the EU discriminate? Let’s eliminate visas altogether and have worldwide FoM. Close down border controls. Good idea?
-
It's not confined to the EU. Russia, North Korea and the US could strike a deal to allow FoM between countries. Put your straw man away Vlad.

Yes you did. I know for a fact that Thailand operates a visa on arrival system, but only if you're from one of those countries on their special list. Coming from a rich country we have exemptions in poorer countries heavily dependent on tourism.

Isn't the fact that you didn't need one for Costa Rica because of the EU. Our leaving would mean that you would then actually need a visa for there.

It's easy to get a tourist visa to Thailand, but a work permit is a bit of a pain in the arse. And they do check, arrest and deport people who try working without a work permit. Oddly, lefties never call them racists or fascists for that.

May is working, not on holiday. How easy was it for you to work in those countries?

Did you undertake any work when you visited those countries?

The ESTA in the US only provides for 90 days business/leisure over a 2 year period visa free, it’s a million miles from the benefits of freedom of movement
