‘Doesn’t feel fair’: young Britons struggle with losing right to work in EU since Brexit

Young Brits can not get work permits for seasonal work in the EU, and it ‘doesn’t feel fair’.

Of course it does not feel fair, because it is not fair. The young people who were interviewed for this piece were schoolkids in 2016 when their parents and grandparents voted for Leave.

No-one asked them, but now they are the ones facing the consequences of a vote they had no part in.

Politicians are, at least officially, against joining the single market or the customs union, but it would be a wise move from them to listen to these young people.

These young people can vote now.
