Date Posted: 14:55:32 01/16/05 Sun Of course, and if HM's government takes too long it risks being sued by some continental lorry driver or tourist. You can't expect people to learn all sorts of silly obsolete measures just in order to be able to exercise their right to free travel and commerce inside the EU. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 15:59:36 01/16/05 Sun Nein, the Schengen agreement exclusion means that the UK keeps the "right" to have border posts and monitor travel documents, but can't stop citizens from other EU states from entering the UK and indeed setting up residence there, provided that they have proper identification (and not even a passport can be requested, if that EU national comes from a state which issues id cards and he prefers to use it).
