Post-Brexit plan would allow British and European 18 to 30-year-olds to travel and work freely. A small and welcome step in undoing the Brexit damage. Must extend it to all, as well as free movement of goods Rejoin the EU. Better than being enslaved by Trump.

My minder in Olomouc is a cheery young man called Nico. He is studying Portuguese because he likes it & may go live in Portugal, because he can. These tots may go & live, study & work freely across Europe. British children can't. Their parents took away their EU citizenship. Just infuriating.
