UK Rejects EU Proposal to Ease Travel for Young Adults

The UK government rejected the European Union’s proposal to negotiate a post-Brexit deal for young adults to move across the Channel more easily.

“We are not introducing an EU-wide Youth Mobility Scheme – free movement within the EU was ended and there are no plans to introduce it,” a government spokesperson said late Friday. They added it was only open to agreeing such schemes with individual EU member states “where it’s in the UK’s interest and supports the skills and opportunities of our youth.”
