Reports suggest the UK government is tabling a new youth mobility deal to the EU ahead of the UK-EU summit on May 19.

Chair of European Movement, Mike Galsworthy, said this to The Independent:

“This is welcome news. We need to start pulling this country out of the no-growth quagmire of Brexit and start giving people hope for a better, brighter future.

“Liberating our youth and small businesses alike to engage is an important start. Hopefully the government will now see that being bold, hopeful and engaged with Europe brings a sigh of relief from the public and a happier outlook.”
