Might the 90 day rule change at some point..?

Hope this never happens.

Why?

I don't think Spain has much of a say.

As far as I'm aware it's an EU "ruling", brought in for the benefit of their member states.

A bit selfish

At some point there may be some tinkering with 90/180 to 180/360, or something similar perhaps for visitors.

But this bit in the article "Spain wants to scrap the 90 day limit for UK visitors, allowing them to stay in the country indefinitely." will never happen because of Spanish tax laws. This line has been added by the journalist without any quoted official source.

You're not starting again are you!!!!

Not gonna happen anytime soon.

I’ll tell you why. Because of Brexit we as a family (along with many thousands of other ex pats) have spent a lot of money abiding by the law and getting our residencies in order that we can live legally in this country as required by EU law, and now they want to let everyone come and live here for free. Are we going to get our money back? Will it just be U.K. or every other eu member state? I hope the other members veto this idea.

And what about people like us, we bought property with the expectation of spending half the year in Spain and the rest uk. We are also paying into the spanish system,tax,bills and the rest that comes with owning a property?
