A bit off-topic, but that seems .. unlikely.

As a New Zealand passport holder, I can visit the EU for 90 days
without a visa. Ok, perhaps the UK won't have such an agreement in
place immediately.

BUT! NZ still has all the pre-EU/EEC bilateral agreements in place. So
I believe I can visit Finland for 90 days, then go to Sweden for 90
days, then Denmark for 90 days, Netherlands for 90 days, Belgium,
France, Germany .. and on for 90 days in each of 20 or so countries.
It is necessary only to find someone to stamp my passport when I go
from one country to another. I believe a police station will suffice.

It would be surprising if the UK didn't still have the pre-1973
bilateral agreements on the books as well.
