ermm its not just green cards its effectively everything. your EU passport and driving licence will become null and void and may be classed as an illegal document in uptight EU country's like ermm France, its an excuse for them and any excuse will do for the French..

lets not forget that although Parliament say people from the EU who have settled in the UK will not be sent home they might have no choice and they will be classed as illegal immigrants due to not having the relevant paperwork same goes for members of the UK in other EU country's.

now here is a big weird situation... how does a non EU member move from one country to another within the EU at the moment? does having your passport stamped in the first EU country constitute for movement between the rest?

I don't see how my UK driving licence suddenly becomes invalid, I still did the tests and earned it and still live/drive/ride in the UK. I'll/we will just require an International Driving Permit in any EU country I/we visit (except Ireland as Ireland doesn't require them for visitors currently) and an Insurance GC.

On the subject of your last point, (In the event of no deal) I will be travelling through ROI (with a green card) to get on a boat to Wales, to return a few days later from Holyhead.. Wonder how much grief if any, I will have? I don't have any faith that it'll be smooth sailing.

Removing the London influence from an English assembly would make one much more acceptable to the rest of us.
But I think we have much more to deal with at the present.
Any way I'm of back to bed.

ermmm NO.. if the people of England want regional representation then new country's must be formed. Midland and Southland? and no you cant have Northland as Englanders referring to "the north" as north of England already pizzes me right off

have the assembly/parliament anywhere you like in England.

oohhh and i also want a single UK bank note not tied to the BOE so we can spend it anywhere in the UK we like without prejudice.

it wont in the UK but it will abroad as its an illegal document due to its wording as an EU licence which will hold no valid entitlement. you will have to apply for a new one to be issued without the EU entitlement. same goes for your passport.

are the Government going to foot the bill? fuk no as it was the public's wish we leave the EU so you will pay......

There's where the IDP comes in does it not? Surely they aren't/can't invalidate every UK driving licence and force renewals overnight? The DVLA can barely handle simple questions,nevermind millions of licences

I hold an Irish Passport

[Bibio]

ROI passport?

we shall see what happens... your licence will have to be issued in the country you passed your test. your going to have fun......

the whole thing is the EU part of your licence/passport will no longer be valid ANYWHERE unless its written into the exit deal if the UK get one. we will no longer be part of the EU and all the benefits that go with it.

the UK could drop all licence/passports and issue brand new ones with al the relevant entitlements for all country's but the problem with that is people abroad will also have to apply for a new one if they hold an EU entitled passport... lets not even get into the whole debate of what will happen to people abroad in country's like ermm Afghanistan, South America etc.etc.. sorry you cant leave as your passport is not legal so we are going to throw you in jail till you can prove your nationality..

i personally will not be going ANYWHERE in the next few years until its all sorted out.

Yes. I passed my tests in the UK Something Northern Ireland is part of Such a part of the UK that our main DVLA contact is in Swansea

Again, is this not where International Driving Permits come in? (For all of us, for EU travel until a proper recognition of driving entitlement agreement is made)

[Bibio]

so your an ROI national with an ROI passport?

[Chris_SVS]

British National with a birthright/entitlement to hold either an ROI or GBR passport, even both. At the time of applying, the ROI one was cheaper and my local Post Office didn't have GBR forms.
