Secret EU document shows what UK must do for better post-Brexit deal
Internal EU papers suggest youth-mobility scheme is key for future UK-EU talks. Document reveals Brussels wants changes to current agreements before starting new partnership discussions
A just-leaked EU document shows that Sir Keir Starmer might need to accept young-peoples movement between UK and EU to get better deals (even though Labour says it wont do this)
The internal EU codex describes youth-mobility as an must-have part of any future UK-EU talks: its seen as vital for building stronger post-brexit ties. The scheme would let young britʼs and EU citizens live in each-others countries for some time with cheap visas
Several high-profile figures support this idea including Sir Tony Blair‚ Andy Burnham and Sadiq Khan. The UK already has similar deals with:
- South Korea
- Japan
- Australia
Weʼll continue to look at EU proposals on a range of issues‚ but we will not return to freedom of movement
The document shows that Brussels wants to use the Trade and Cooperation Agreement review for big changes. Theyʼre ready to talk about defense security‚ vet agreements and pro qualifications — but only if UK follows through with previous deals made by past prime-ministers
The EU paper also points out fishing-rights issues where new UK rules made things harder for EU boats. Sir Keir has said he wont give in on fishing matters. Brussels wants better implementation of current deals before moving forward with any new talks about Northern Ireland or EU citizens rights
