If I don't get residency I can't stay longer than 3 months a year as things stand, currently it's okay as we're treated as EU nationals but that will stop after transition. I don't get my state pension yet but surely that's safe I've paid in for well over 40 years, I do get a small company pension. I know that there are a lot of ex pats on the coast who have been out here for years without obtaining residency but now they're worrying.
