We are pleased to see the adoption of the EP resolution on the future relationship The text sends a clear message to the UK and EU MSs on the need to implement the citizens’ rights provisions of the Withdrawal Agreement in a timely and balanced manner. 1/5 
Not doing so will call into question the credibility of both parties and their commitment to a future relationship based on their stated key priority of protecting citizens. 2/5
Not doing so also prolongs the uncertainty of over 1.2 million UK nationals living in the EU. Adding this to the uncertainty and upheaval already caused by COVID-19 this year is unfair and unacceptable. 3/5
We now expect to see member states start to implement the WA and publish procedures and timelines before the end of July. And we look to the @EU_Commission to ensure that Member States do this. 4/5
We thank our friends @the3million and current and former MEPs from across the political spectrum who worked with us to strengthen the text to reflect the concerns of UK citizens in the EU. Thank you for listening to us. Thank you for working with us – it is appreciated.
