UK to end freedom of movement for EU citizens on day one of Brexit
FYI, The Independent has a reputation for writing ridiculous clickbait articles. When you look into the details things almost always turn out to be much less dramatic than the article made it sound.<p>See here for a response to this article: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;adamfleming&#x2F;status&#x2F;1163335442542059520" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;adamfleming&#x2F;status&#x2F;1163335442542059520</a><p>&gt; As has been previously been made clear, in the event of no deal, EU citizens and their family members already resident in the UK by 31 October 2019 will be welcome to stay and we want them to do so. They are part of our community, and part of our country and we welcome the contribution that they make. If there is no deal, they will have until 31 December 2020 to apply to the EU Settlement Scheme to protect their status.
