Thread. 1. I find Brexit frustrating. Well, more precisely I find the impasse frustrating. We know Brexit makes no sense because the last 47 years were a natural evolution of needing to live/work/study in, retire to, buy from, sell to other countries nearby. Nothing changed.
1. Freedom of Movement of People isn’t “uncontrolled immigration” despite what some politicians want you to believe. This thread explains some of the benefits of it.

'I was Chair of the Conservative Party when there was one.' 'They've lost the most important attribute: the benefit of the doubt.' Former Conservative Party Chair Lord Patten tells @AndrewMarr9 the failings of the current government are mostly due to 'the disaster of Brexit'.
Sorry, but even after all this time, I still cannot believe the narrow-minded idiots in this country voted to remove our Freedom of Movement in that ridiculous referendum. Their selfishness still astounds me. Did they never think about the young people of this currently…

5. So I want to know how we can help people rediscover the practical benefits being part of a barrier-free area. Since when did we think long queues, expensive visas and shortages were a good idea?
2. My generation understands European culture because we have grown up with it. Our friends are Spanish, German, Polish, Latvian, Estonian. I have benefited directly from our involvement in Europe.
4. I want to “rejoin” but quite frankly it doesn’t matter much to me how it what it’s called or how it is structured. For me it is what it meant in day to day terms that matters. Being European is just life. No barriers, reduced costs, more flexibility, more hope, more joy.

Latest polling shows 86% of British voters under 30 years old want the UK to rejoin the European Union. Brexit is finished, why delay the inevitable?
This has been quietly under negotiation for months with both sides in broad agreement for its introduction until some Conservative party polling showed it would not play well with the frothing gammon on the right so Sunak engineered a fake "rejection"
Official: U.K. rejects EU offer of mobility scheme for young people between EU and UK theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Why on earth would a government reject the chance for young people to live and work in the EU? Ideology is trashing their opportunities And sadly Labour agree Greens would embrace a mobility agreement as a step towards EU membership theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
.@TheGreenParty is fully committed to restoring the Erasmus programme, which gave such brilliant educational opportunites to so many young people. Freedom of movement is not a threat - it's a blessing. Sad that Labour has turned its back on something so valuable.
At this stage, it’s looking like the EU cares more about British youth opportunities than does Keir Starmer.
Indeed! Important point by Jane. Imagine you are abroad on the Youth Mobility scheme and you happen to fall in love with a local or someone from another country. Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken. What's Love Got To Do With It? ❤️
@ChillaxBcn @EUCouncil But be careful not to do that thing many do during that age range and fall in love . . .
