What You Should Know About UK And EU Citizens' Rights After Brexit

Expat Focus

If you're a Brit in Europe, or a European citizen living in the UK, the issue of Brexit will be high on your radar. At the time of recording this, there are just six months to go until the UK leaves the European Union, and there's still no deal. European leaders at a summit in Salzburg just shot down the UK Prime Minister's latest plan, so everyone's gone back to the drawing board. There have been 'no deal' planning papers released, and right now, that prospect is looking like a scary reality. So where does Brexit leave citizens' rights, on both sides of the Channel? And what can expats in the UK and Europe be doing now, to best prepare? Today's guest is Daniel Tetlow, Co-founder of the organisation British in Germany, and a member of British in Europe. And - spoiler alert - he doesn't have definitive answers, no one does right now, but he does explain why he and others are working so hard to get them. You're going to hear Daniel mention the name 'Michel Barnier' a few times in this interview - he's the EU's Chief Brexit negotiator. And you'll find all the useful links that Daniel mentions, listed in our show notes.
