I haven’t been able to even verify if his mother was in fact French... she was most likely English and German. I can only find that she was born in France.
The point is, Stanley himself backed Brexit, and is now, at the age of 79, trying to obtain French citizenship for himself and his family so that they can retain the right that most British citizens cannot, to live and work freely in the EU.
It’s an entitled hypocrisy that is not surprising. I don’t have any skin in the game and don’t really care, and pretty much just find it humorous. But I think the Johnson family should at least be called out on it.

There still seems to be the myth that people who voted Brexit are some kind of union Jack short wearing gorillas.Miguelito wrote: ↑Tue Mar 24, 2020 10:48 amI haven’t been able to even verify if his mother was in fact French... she was most likely English and German.

That's speculation. No one knows for sure what’s going to happen and if they do require a “visa” it’ll be a formality.
The EU know that if they restrict Brits from living in the UK they will do the same.
I know what the French thought of the British before this so I can see them not liking this one bit.
pew, pew, pew, pew!
