Why do you keep pedalling this shit if he wanted to move to Spain he could if he meets the right criteria same as anyone else outside the EU could.

Always the doom mongerer isn't he, I think we should all move over there and give him a fucking heart attack, he'd end up moving back to Swansea Sad Happy Hour GIF

I'm telling you the legal situation as it currently stands. If you can give me links to support your alternative POV then I'm all ears!

You mentioned the right criteria? Do you know what that is? Well it's investing more than €500,000 in property in order to apply for a Golden Visa!

Has @Six30 got a cool half million laying round? What about you and @busabeast?

If none of you have.......then you won't be moving to Spain and living here in the way that me and @Skippy can. 

Your only option is to work around the 90 day rule like @Slowlycatchymonkey does.

That way doesn't work either unless you're under 16 I think.

You keep referring to yourself and your situation all the time and we all  know that time has long gone its getting boring. Slowly is stuck on the 90 day rule because she doesn't want to move to Spain permanently so is only a visitor, if she did want to move there permanently she would be one of the ones that could and she probably has the 500k kicking around or could run a business from there. For normal people like me and six we would have to apply to enter the country for work and pay taxes like any other Spanish citizen. All that's changed is you cant move there and bum around anymore same as any other country and that's a good thing. The way your talking there is a total ban on all UK citizens to move to Spain since Brexit and there isn't, you now have to apply and be vetted just like you do with every other country in the world some will meet the criteria and some won't and that's it.

There is also the lesser known ‘Non lucrative visa’ which you can apply for which then leads to residency if you do a number of years. 
That’s simply a visa for people who want to live in the country but won’t be earning anything whilst in the country. It’s designed for people who work from home who could legitimately work from a different base and retired people.

All that's been achieved is the retirement dreams of many Brits to move to Spain, France, Italy etc have been taken away from them. The vetting threshold is far too high for ordinary people.

And it can also cause issues within  families.....look at Bob's situation for example. His missus and his boy could move to Italy if they wanted......but he's going nowhere. He's stuck where he is. Now they may well not ever want to move to Italy.....but that's not the point. He had those rights and now he doesn't. 

If something happened to me......what's going to happen to the wife? She's not just allowed to move to NL as she would have been able to do. If that day arises my boy will sort something out, but it's still going to be an involved process.

None of this affects the rich of course.....nothing ever does. Just working class folks like most of us here are.

I think Fred’s point is it’s not the end of moving to another country fullstop which is how you tend to make it sound every time you bring up Brexit.
There are visa’s and exceptions made like for elderly dependents, the nonlucrative visa or many other solutions that certainly aren’t as easy as waving your EU passport and going where you like but it’s certainly not the end of immigration.
