-So what’s your first post going to be about? Migrating.

-Risky.

-Not really. It’s just another word for moving. And we’re still allowed to move.

-Tell that to Ukip.

-Haha but I’m moving for love so that’s ok.

-…

-Nigel Farage’s wife is German.

-No way.

-Way.

-Weird thing, isn’t it? When you say you’re moving to another country to be with your partner people are like “Ohhh that’s romantic”. But when you say “I’m moving to find work to support my family” people be like “Vade retro satanas”.

-Yeah. Which is especially dumb since you’re going to work in the UK — I mean to steal a job in the UK.

-Yes! But it’s ok I know an English girl who works in Paris — so it balances it out. If needed we can swap passports.

-Smart.

-Thanks.

-Or I get married. I actually wonder how many people get married because of borders…

-Lots.

-Lots, lots.

-And it’s only going to increase!

-Yeah — I’m sure lots of people are going to get married just because they want to stay in the country!

-Yeah! People who don’t even love each other!

-Nasty!

-Maybe even friends are going to get married too! Like to get a British passport and a European one!

-Sick! Or smart…

-Or very smart…

-Or it’s a conspiracy.

-What?

-A conspiracy from the conservative to get young people married. You know cause old people had to get married super young so they’re jealous of our freedom.

-They shouldn’t — I mean have they seen what’s dating is like now? Have they tried Tinder? Horrid.

-Or maybe it’s a conspiracy from the liberals.

-Why?

-To increase the number of bi-national marriages! To force diversity into society so that the Brexit will not mean anything — since everyone will have two passports.

-Oh that’s twisted.

-Super twisted.

-Or it’s the lawyers. Must be the lawyers. The other ones are not that smart.

-Ohhh… Wait. Why?

-To whom benefit the crime ? Lawyers! More weddings, more divorces. More divorces, more money.

-So the lawyers would have pushed for the Brexit so that young people get married to foreigners, and then divorce them, in order to make money.

-That’s right.

-You don’t really follow politics do you?
