NO,it was on rte teletext this morning,there is a big swing towards the remain but i am not sure if it was a poll done in private,in other words what they say in public and how they really feel are two different issue's.What surprises me is that nobody has come out and said that the poll is wrong.Confused

That can't be right. 100 mp's changing their minds would be extraordinary considering only about 160
declared definite support in the first place.
Is it maybe polling in 100 constituencies that voted leave now polling pro remain?
As a lot were close so that would be possible, 100 mp's changing course seems totally implausible

It is a blatant distortion that there is total free movement of citizens in the EU. There is free movement of labour if a job
is available but otherwise you have to prove you are self sufficient and will not be a burden to the social system of
the country you move to and have comprehensive medical insurance.
If you cannot fulfill those criteria within 3 months you can be sent home. Other EU countries strictly enforce this but
for some reason our government has not done so.

Directive 2004/38/EC of the European Parliament And of the Council sets out clear guidelines that allow EU countries to
control their borders effectively. The government needs to answer as to why it does not implement them.

"Persons excercissing their right of residence should not become an unreasonable burden on the social assistance system
of the host member state during an initial period of residence. Therefore, the right of residence for Union citizens and their
family members for periods in excess of three months should be subject to conditions."

The conditions mentioned mean that any EU national can be expelled if not meeting them and other member states remove thousands who do not. The UK, for whatever reason does not make people even fill in registration documents when
arriving so cannot keep accurate records.

The failing is with our governments not the EU.

Now the problem with this terrific idea is that once article 50 was triggered the UK would need permission from the EU to reverse article 50 and i am not sure if the EU would allow this after all this time.In other words the EU could say to the UK at this time "you can vote all you like about staying or leaving but the sad news is that you have already triggered article 50(handed in your notice to quit)and we(EU)will decide if you stay or leave and it will be on our(EU)terms.

and the last option is to get permission from the EU to reverse article 50 ,go to the people of the UK again with another referendum and make sure they get a remain(join again)result.

are not being filled and, assuming everything is just fine after brexit, that won't change. The nationalities
of migrant workers may change but the "low paid jobs" will still need to be filled.
In France & Belgium for instance those looking for employment have to register, if they do not that cannot access
sevices and if they don't find employment within the specified time they are denied access to services and can
be sent back.
For some reason the UK didn't implement anything like that. I can't answer why.

They cannot afford accommodation on the money they earn yet they won the right to stay. Deporting has been found to be against EU law in these circumstances. Your directive therefore has been interpreted by the courts to mean if you cannot afford accommodation you can still be self-sufficient.

'A Nelma spokesman said: “In reality, many homeless people targeted by the Home Office have fallen on hard times and are working but unable to afford accommodation.

“The numbers of European nationals sleeping rough have been steadily increasing since 2010. But rather than making substantial or systematic attempts to provide solutions to homelessness through accommodation and employment support, local and national authorities have opted to add enforcement measures to austerity policies. We hope this decision will put an end to a social policy which used imprisonment and deportation as solutions to eradicate homelessness.”'
