Spot on Dev ,My biggest worry is that in 20 years time if the EU has its way ,you wont be able to distinguish in any way between an Englishman and a Belgian and for that matter an African .Some might say whats wrong with that ? .I just feel uncomfortable with it .
I'm not talking about colour of skin ,its losing the identity of a country's culture ,language,laws and even religions that worries me .
I believe if someone goes to reside in another country they should be made to respect the culture and language .If i went to live in Iraq I would be expected to respect their laws and culture and the same should go for any country .I bet the Spanish people are over the moon with the large communities of ex pats who live there who cant be bothered to learn the lingo and want the English lifestyle in the sun .

Blue, the UK has spent most of its history colonising, raping and pillaging too many countries to mention. Did we respect Indian and Pakistani culture or that of the half of Africa we decided it would be nice to have? An awful lot of non white people have rights to UK passports because of our ancestors past. That has nothing to do with the EU. You reap what you sow or in our case rape, make a few bob and bugger the consequences.

Would it really matter if you couldn't tell the difference between a Belgian and an Englishman? Most Belgians speak better English than we do, we both drink beer, they are more religious than us but I don't hold that against them, its not like they have 2 heads or anything. I am sure you would rather have a beer loving Belgian living next door to you than a crack house full of English people or a sub let to 30 Pakistani's with ligit "British" passports.
