So tragic.

"They are particularly concerned about the abolition of collective passports – the 'list of travellers' scheme that allowed non-EU students, usually from immigrant families, to travel as part of an EU organised group without needing a UK visa."

"Between 5% and 10% of German children on school trips to the UK would need to apply for a visa costing £95 under the new rules, the companies said, while half of French trips would be at risk for the same reason."

"Marta, 24, was sent to the Colnbrook Immigration Removal Centre. All her personal belongings were seized. 'My window had bars, the walls barbed wire'. Another young woman from Tuscany had been held there 5 days. Dozens of EU citizens have suffered the same fate since Jan 1st."

Are you listening, Europe? 🇪🇺

"EU citizens are being sent to immigration removal centres and held in airport detention rooms as the UK’s 'hostile environment' policy falls on them after Brexit. Even Europeans with job interviews are among those being denied entry and locked up."

Never forget ...
Scotland has the GDP of Hungary, but with a smaller population. It has extensive fishing wsters, a surplus of green energy, an international identity and world class products & services. An independent Scotland in the EU would also attract many English businesses
Scotland also has the same Human Development Index rating as Austria
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇦🇹 🇪🇺
(HDI is a statistic composite index that combines life expectancy, education and per capita income.)

"You don't hear much about Brexit in the UK these days. Which is astonishing, just 3 months after the biggest change in British post-war history. The reality, however, is that in the slipstream of the pandemic, Brexit damage is steadily increasing."

"Yet the most astonishing thing about the current situation is not that no one on the island wants to talk about Brexit and its consequences anymore, the most astonishing thing is that Johnson is still unable to explain to anyone why these sacrifices were actually necessary."

👇
"The much-heralded trade deal with the USA is still a long way off, and comparable deals with India and other former colonial territories are unrealistic in the medium term. The mantra of a new 'Global Britain' has so far remained nothing but an empty phrase."

"An increasing number of UK companies are fast-tracking digital transformation. Many of these initiatives incorporate automation technologies such as natural-language processing, machine-learning-enabled optical character recognition and conversational artificial intelligence."
And here's the Nobel prize winner who warned us that limiting free movement would indeed lead to more automation. And that, in turn, could lead to fewer jobs for everyone.
