@EFTA4UK @SamHooper @eureferendum @PeteNorth303 @RichardAENorth Actually Julia it doesn't. Once in the EEA via whatever method (@EFTA4UK ) the UK can invoke article Article 112 http://www.efta.int/media/documents/legal-texts/eea/the-eea-agreement/Main%20Text%20of%20the%20Agreement/EEAagreement.pdf … of the agreement as attached. You could read Flexcit or @eureferendum for more

Art 112 invocation easily challengeable in courts.
-
Julia, there are lost tribes of the Amazon who know more about treaty law than you. Safeguard measures are unilaterally invoked, triggering a political process. That is what safeguard measures are for. They are a treaty mechanism common to most modern agreements.
-
When did I claim to be an expert on treaty law? I’m saying that would be challenged.
-
By lawyers with lots of money you mean? Let them. The EEA treaty is perfectly plain. Article 112 can be invoked unilaterally so why not do it and see who comes up with the money to challenge it? Only the lawyers will get rich out of that.
-
There is no basis on which to challenge invocation of safeguard measures. They are a legal instrument. They are there to be used. The measures then proposed can be disputed which then begins a political process to determine appropriate countermeasures.

you are wrong about this. if you have no job and cannot support yourself after 3 months' residence, you have to leave. this is true in every Eu member state. do your homework.

And how does anyone identify you as being such? And how do they find you? And how do they deport you?
-
Julia, any responsible journalist would research their subject. In Europe, countries have digital ID systems to track citizens employment status in conjunction with applying the Freedom of Movement rules. In the UK,
@theresa_may cancelled our system. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/immigration/11041961/Taxpayer-hit-with-224m-bill-over-Theresa-Mays-decision-to-cancel-immigration-computer-system.html …

Julia, current EU regs below. I suggest you get informed instead of misinformed.pic.twitter.com/6fNAZ9vWDO

Yes, as I said... anyone from the EU can come here and how many are ever deported if/when they cannot find paid work? Answer: they’re not.
-
Which is the UK’s doing. Controlling people inside their borders, they do not.
-
Membership of the Single Market does not mean uncontrolled immigration. A government that can't be bothered applying EU regulations (and can barely bothered with government at all truth be told) does mean we'll end up with it. See the difference, Julia?

And just point something else out, we get an exemption from the EU on refugees as well.pic.twitter.com/eaGm13tEKc

Leaving the Single Market means a hard border in NI Leaving the Single Market means a hard border in NI Leaving the Single Market means a hard border in NI Worth repeating
#FBPE -
we have common travel area with Ireland since 1927
-
Which has not much to do with the hard border issue...
-
the troubles caused the hard border, not the hard border caused the troubles, remoaners use try and use it as an excuse to stay in singlemarket. Irish since 1927 have been free to go to UK
-
Have you been to Northern Ireland at all? I was born in Belfast the year the troubles started. I can tell you those were dark days with no go areas on the border. We have peace now but by god it’s precarious. It won’t take much to light the tinderbox. But sure I’m just remoaning
-
Very few in the UK remember NI is part of the union, let alone the history. It'll be the hill brexit dies on though, funny old world.
-
I keep saying HMS Brexit will shipwreck on the rocks of Northern Ireland. Fitting as it's the home of that other fantasy project, the unsinkable ship

nouther that want Brexit (the UK) to fail
