Next year's Schengen entry system.

Sounds like someone has reported it to the mods

Hopefully! It's water under the bridge and totally irrelevant. What matters is the current position, not how it was arrived at. FFS keep politics out of threads.

FFS? Keep bad language out, I say.

You may be right. But Johnson made a bit of a hash of things for many of us.

I am not so sure that is quite right. What I suspect happened is that the later govt picked up the deal that was in the process of being brokered by May & Ollie Stephens. Now he is said to have been a real remainer & the architect of anything that would make us want to re join. Hence, the 90 day fiasco. I imagine- that in a rush "to get things done" Boris instructed the officials to look at the main parts & complete the deal. I expect that the NI question took most of the time.
I further suspect that the fine print negotiated earlier on was just glued on to the bottom. Boris not being one for detail it would seem. No one bothering to revisit some items, such as the 90 day rule, particularly in the light of the acrimony involved at the time.
Only a theory & I hope not too politically contraversial for the mods

the 90/180 day rule is not going to have any impact on 95% of the UK population who might go overseas for a maximum of 21 days a year.

As I have stated in other posts I popped back into the Shengen area to stop the clock a few weeks back and still have 20 days to be used before mid January. Had I not done that so I wonder what would have happened when the boat was back in the water and boarded entering a French port.

I know we have discussed this many times but your post confuses me. Why go back to the schengan area to "stop the clock"? Was your pass port not stamped?
Then why say you have 20 days "to be used by january"?
