No Chance...

id swap with you if that was legal though, but no chance there either.

What is wrong with Spain,

the weather here in England is rubbish, its dark and cloudy and miserable most of the year.

we are in a recession so all our services are being cut, you wont get a job or housed.



If you have a profession you stand a better chance, though i would recommend Germany if you want a better life.

Each country has its own rules regarding residence permits and work visas. A residence permit from one EEA country gives you no rights to live and work in any other EEA country. If you want to live and work in the UK, you must apply for a UK work visa.

while you're hiring a place in spain for an prolonged time era the agent will assist you with questions you will choose a nie quantity (like a countrywide coverage quantity) Gibraltar is considered leaving the country and the customs are on the ball daily. in case you reside over 6 months you're able to sign up on the city corridor in case your motor vehicle runs out of mot you will get a spanish mot to be utilized in Spain yet its no longer criminal in france nor the U. S. you will choose a french mot and a uk one once you get off the ferry to get you abode

No, there is no work for our own people, and our welfare state is overstretched by 3rd world migrants seeking fortune and free £,scamming,robbing and raping...Spain is in even worse trouble so you wont be welcome there i would say...Go back to your home country in West Africa and try and make it better,and stop blaming the west and the white man on all your problems.

No you have no right to come to Britain.



You have been privileged to get residency in Spain be grateful or perhaps go back to Africa.



We have enough immigrants already......sorry.

No, you would have to return to your birth country and apply from there, but the chances are very slim.
