Seen all the scaremongering posting here what going to happen to people over staying as once again coming to nothing .
I would have supported this last March. Now... not so much. Am I alone in worrying about our long term civil rights under this government?
Civil rights have many faces. The majority have a right not to be infected by a minority who couldn't care less about the consequences of their actions. I'm surprised Portugal are saying they will welcome back tourists in a few months, seems the income matters more than health. 90 year olds haven't been vaccinated yet so no idea when the general population will be.
Maybe some time away from here is what you need.However, I think I'm also starting to get covid-induced-cabin fever and perhaps seeing demons where there are none!

I thought I explained that fact to you at the beginning of March.?
I spoke to a lawyer yesterday. EURO BRITS AIRE ..She told me that as long as I was legally in Greece efore 31 12 20 I have the right to stay in the country behond the 90 days ,as per the withdrawal agreement . Also I have a option to apply for residency until 30 June ,but don't have to apply if I do not want to. Also this date in June is not fixed in law ,just a date that the Greek government want a depart7 open to carry out this duty.

Sorry, I don’t recall you explaining anything to me and as to advice from a lawyer in Greece
My primary area of interest is Iberia so I suspect her advice would carry little weight here.
This thread is for the benefit for Brits, who are not residents caught in the EU, rather than Brits resident in Portugal, who, of course can be in Portugal for as long as they wish.
My second ( after 4 weeks ) booked for Friday. The admiral has speeded things with production line jabs - as long as vaccines continue to arrive.78, I am in Phase 2 for the vaccine. Phase 2 hopes to start at the beginning of April but which April
Plan B is to return to the U.K. to get the jab but the chances of that are slipping by the day. We had hoped to fly back after 17 May but the latest talk is, late June will be the earliest we can return.
