Secunder Kermani talks to expats on the Costa del Sol - BBC Newsnight 

3:38 "I visit my daughter in Tunbridge Wells regularly and when i walk round the shopping centre now I rarely hear an English person. It's either Romanians, Polish and they have their own shops and pubs" say's the British colonialist immigrant living in Spain full of English pubs and bacon butty and burger joints. The hypocrisy is just mind blowing!

"Britain is the best place in the world", yet you have chosen to live in Spain for the last 20 years.! ....What am I missing here.?

not expats, immigrants. come on fair is fair

Never seen so many hypocrites in one day.

Deluded about how important they are

I want to be British, but stay in Spain. I want to vote but don’t want to stay in Britain. I’m quite a selfish Fokker to be honest..

You can't have it both ways, Brits. Godspeed

It's 2023, they need to do an update story now to see what this immigrants think at the moment after the Brexit disaster

“You come to live in Spain and the Spanish government give you nothing...” 😂 I’m afraid sir, you come to live in Spain and the EU give you everything...

They are not expats they are retired immigrants. An expat is somebody sent by his company for a certain period of time usually 3 to 5 years. As an expat you usually have a package to cover your all your local expenses ( school, car, health, rent etc ...) . My family were expats all their life . Diplomats are an example of public expats.

In the words of farage You're not laughing now...!!

Adios British Immigrants

4'00'' .... comedy gold. And he doesn't even know it.

Maybe not to live but the UK is the best place in the world..,.😂😂😂😂😂😂

Quality, I don’t hear English voice in tunbridge wells like I used To!! Didn’t stop you pissing out of it, did it?

British immigrants.

Ron asks why can't he vote, but why should he be allowed to vote just on the bases he holds a British passport? He no longer lives in the UK so why should he be allowed to vote on the laws of a country he no longer lives in? Because he's British? Why should that effect his voting right? "Tunbridge Wells was a lovely place to live, but now they (immigrants) have their own pubs." Kermani: "Isn't that a bit like the British people here in the Costa del Sol?" "Not at all: You come to live in Spain, the Spanish Government give you nothing." That wasn't an answer to what he said before and it's also a generization about immigration to the UK: He accused immigrants of making their own "pubs ect" in the UK, but that's what a lot of British expats do in Spain. His answer to Kermani doesn't have any relevance to his first statement, and is entirely hypocritical. The store owner did bring up a good point about the possibility of being unable to, or making it harder to import British goods if the UK leaves the EU. Overall, a good article by Newsnight because it shows the hypocrisy of some British people who accuse foreigners of coming to the UK and setting up their own way of life, when in fact, the British expats do the same thing in Spain. Funny how it's alright if they do it.

They hate other people moving there and not learning the language but when It comes to English people learning Spanish in Spain 😂😂

When I heard the English lady saying that she had lost her heating allowance , honestly I have lived and worked in France for 44 years and get a small ( much appreciated ) pension British pension , I can honestly say that I have never asked for a heating allowance , I find that so dishonest living in Spain and wanting a heating allowance . Taking money away from British people who really need to heat their houses , and believe me electricity is expensive in France .

If I lived in Spain than at least I would make an effort to learn Spanish unlike these people

3:36 to 4:05 - what a bloody hypocrite living on the Costa del Bournemouth.

They are immigrants

I want to be British but I left there! *rolls eyes*

Best place but not the best to live.. end of quote

pure racism

"Then i would have to come back to England " Think yourselves bloody lucky you've got an England to come back to . Selfish sods .

British immigrants NOT expats....

In case you get confused with expat and immigrants… White English speaking = expat white non English speaking = immigrant Not white not English speaking = see it, say it, sort it

Funny those brits living in a enclave in spain and say that they are not speaking englisch in parts of the UK :D

Best place in the world.....but I wouldn’t live there...🙄

he say britains the best place in the world why is he living in spain,i live in germany i would say this is far better and its the best place in the world

My brain hurts listening to this 🙈🙈🙈

they are immigrants why do they not apply for their countrys citizenship

They'd get a surprise going back to England for healthcare of they've been out of the country for a couple of years

Bleedin Union Jack flags all over the place !

What is the difference between an "Expat" and an "Immigrant"?

British Exceptionalism *spits on the ground*

They will leech on the nhs

Best place in the World but lives in Spain? Okay, go home migrant. lol

It's not free thay pay then the UK pays it back to them it was said on a mother u tube

Why the hell should he vote? He doesn't live here

It's called controlling borders......remember that one? But man you've got a blue passport

Expats? Immigrants!

Lost their heating allowance? Living in Spain HAH!! Moving to Spain next year 2021 learning the language, private health care and not on the coast just to be with other Brits.

Cuesta sentir empatía por sus problemas, la verdad! Me hacen sentir como si fuese una mala persona. 😳

"and cetra"

Immigrants

They will have to go home now! Lol

Tunbridge Wells is very English. I'm not sure what he's on about? And I knew British people on the dole in Spain.

4:31 Heinz tomato ketchup and beanz are sold anywhere in the EU. There is no need to import those from the UK.

i understand love for your country but those UK foreigners need to be bit more humble and open

Some of them want it both ways

Uk is the best place in the world......... maybe not to live 🤣🤣🤣

The Party's over Pack up and go home ! Welcome to BREXIT Sir! 😂

Spain tolerated too many of these people. Countries can do a selection of the type of immigrants they want.

Why are they called "ex pats" ...immigrants is more accurate..but I know why they make the distinction

the nerve

They can be assured of a nice warm welcome back when they get slung out !

"I still believe the UK is the best place in the world..." 😂 Deluded or stupid...

Can't beat Blackpool or Morecambe. Good 'ole' Fish 'n" Chips.

come back then bloody hell !

Expats? Do you mean immigrants!!!!

Looks like Farage needs to bad mouth Tonbridge Wells instead of Oldham.....or some serious fact checking needs to be made.

Ah, what a difference 5 years make. Tragic.

Please don't let any of the people in this video discover SE Asia, leave them in 'the best country in the world'

Keep Calm and -- RUN! LA MIGRA!

I walk around wellingborough.... Not one English person can you hear

These Brits are immigrants in Spain. The saving grace for the Spanish is most of them appear to be past breeding or working age so when they have spent a considerable amount of UK taxpayers money in the Spanish economy they will eventually die.

Donkey looking after Donkeys

Shame 😫

what john laird said. when people of color return un spoiled by privilege, we'll all feel better about emigres`, immigrants and retirees! even swap is no swindle. no more settler colonialism!

Pits

It doesn't matter what colour you dye the donkeys hair its still a donkey

GBR the best place in the world, not to live...? To die?

Brexit is Brexit,still around here??

This is very old news. Just need to say that unlike immigrants in England , British people don’t claim money from the Spanish government nor do they get free healthcare. Britain pays Spain for the Brits who live in Spain. We spend our money and it goes into the economy of Spain. All those who think we get free hand outs are mistaken. I think now that Britain is out the EU it has not changed Spain and Britain - as far as I’ve been told have reciprocated that it will remain the same.
