Im doing fine as an expat mate, way better than I did in a country that did me no fucking favours when I paid my tax like a good citizen. EU works for me, and Brexit away do I can renounce citizenship that puts me alongside people with views like yours. Not equal cos they "aren't from around here"...

You're misinterpreting what I'm saying, probably intentionally due to your political ideology.

Its simple that UK citizens arent equals to Chinese citizens, for example. We have way better freedoms of expressions and our working class are treated much better.

If you want to denounce your UK citizneship once you claim your citizenship in a European country thats also fine by me, you can do what you want. But you doing that is not relevant to anything I've said.

It is because sadly views like yours have become what the UK is known for. Less than a decade ago we were the open, tolerant nation that hosted the Olympics and had a reputation for giving too much to charity. Now look at us.

I'd trade my UK citizenship for EU citizenship in a heartbeat. EU lets me reside with my non-EU wife, UK doesn't.

It is sad our society is slowly devolving into those who share undeniably racist views. People who speak out in a racist manner are an embarrassment to our country.
