Born and raised in Manchester, there's a Cadbury's store in Salford and every time I go home my suitcase is a few pounds heavier on the return flight. My parents have sent me chocolate before, it melted whilst it was in my mailbox :/. Still ate that shit though .

I don't really know, it also depends on what kind of deal is made and whether the UK stays part of the single market. The UK has something like the 5th biggest trade market, this could quite possibly change id there is no free trade agreement in place. It could also leave to Scotland and Northern Ireland voting staging independence votes and possibly leaving the UK.

I'm just an expat who's lived in the US for the past 18 years so my opinion might be bullshit, but that's how I understand it.

Dream on... it's going to take best part of 2years to separate and in the meantime all Cadbury Flakes will be diverted to mainland Europe to encourage dependency so that when we do leave we leave with a healthy order book for Flakes!

Sadly this video became more popular after the referendum was passed.

Spend some time listening, the facts are very intriguing because he's discussing this from a legal/agreement/treaty perspective.

This is going to make expats and either side of the equation very uncomfortable. Their free movement and easy ability to put down roots in their respective adopted countries was built on the EU membership. All that is going to change.

Nah, you at least want a 99 for that!

Now I'm wondering if a 99 is a Northern thing?
