The European Commission argues it was Europe’s students and young graduates who were most affected by Brexit’s mobility restrictions. The UK has reportedly responded cooly to the proposal.
The European Union is trying to improve mobility between its 27 member-states and the UK, particularly for people between the ages of 18 and 30. But whether such a proposal would be welcomed by London remains to be seen.
The EU’s executive arm, the European Commission, is trying to open bloc-wide talks with the UK on allowing youth from EU countries to study or work and live in Britain for up to four years, with the same arrangement for British youth.
The proposal would largely revert youth mobility to pre-Brexit times, when members of the then-28-member EU, including Britain, were allowed to work and study without visa requirements. The Commission’s new plan would involve a visa, but one whose fees would not be “excessive.”

Unfortunately it excludes a great deal of gen x and millennials as well who may have voted remain.
Also certainly those 18-30 year olds will continue to age until they no longer qualify…
Age shouldn’t be a factor, perhaps make it a requirement to agree to a new EU branded passport instead?
Also the millennials though
Removed, advocating violence. Totally cool up until the last line.
I would make the argument that wishing people would hurry up and die of old age is not actually advocating violence per se
Wishing that people die is the same thing.
It is not.
Can’t even for the life of me remember exactly what I wrote, but it was probably edgy and dark.
It’s a fair cop? I don’t know.
Edit: yeah, that last line might’ve been too much. Could’ve instead used the classic “sink in to the tar pit, you old dinosaur”, but that’s a tad cliché - and honestly? It’s the Tories we’re talking about, the people who destroyed England. Violent animosity towards them is understandable.
Have a nice day (unless you’re a Tori - in which case, you can get ****** with a metal rake - is that okay to say? I even sensored the swear word…)
