BREXIT -THE FUTURE OF BRITISH PEOPLE LIVING IN SPAIN

BREXIT - The Future of Limited Free Movement of people in the European Union.

I think that we all must agree whatever way you intend to vote in the Referendum that so many lies and exaggerations are being made mainly by the IN supporters.
Recently on BBC Question time, a Labour supporter made the comment....If we vote OUT, what will happen to all the British
 people living in Spain ? They will be designated Migrants. They may have to leave Spain.
What a load of Rubbish ! It shows the ignorance about British people living in Spain.

Most of the British people living on the Costa del Sol for example are property owners. Some are designated Permanente Residente and some are designated Non Residente.
We have had a property in Spain for 15 years. We are not Migrants.
We pay Spanish Wealth Taxes even though we do not rent out our property and we have no income in Spain. We pay IBI and Basuras - local taxes including refuse collection. We pay into the Spanish Economy for all food and drink, meals at restaurants, petrol. In addition we pay for a Spanish accountant to pay our wealth tax annually to the Spanish Tax authorities.
At our Complex, we pay for all services - the Spanish Gardener, Spanish Energy, Spanish Painters and so on.

In other words, we and millions of other British residents contribute to the Spanish Economy. Oh, do not forget we have poured some €200,000 investment when buying our property and in doing so provided employment which Spain badly needs in the Building Industry.
So, we are not Migrants. We are beneficial to the Spanish Economy.
We do not claim benefits.

What will happen then to the millions of British people living either permanently in Spain or who have a holiday home ?

Absolutely nothing !

The IN people who frighten us should take note. You are speaking Rubbish. There is a world of difference between Migrants who are dependent on Welfare Payments and become a burden on Housing, Healthcare, Schools, interpreters and live in ghettos and People who invest in a EU country, pay their way and create employment.
The same situation also applies to investors in France, Portugal, Italy and Turkey to name just a few countries where British people have holiday Homes.
If we leave the EU Britain will continue to welcome inward investment if it contributes to the British Economy in a positive manner. So will Spain.
