People over 65 are disproportionately poor and disabled. They don’t get a say in Social Security and access to medication?
And like - 65 is not ancient, for christ’s sweet sake. The healthiest of the bunch have a good thirty years left. And even the ones who don’t - they still deserve safety and dignity for however long they have.
I totally get the frustration of the younger generation whenever something like this happens, though. Who thought they had years and years before them where they could go and experience and work and be a part of this huge area of 500 million people and now the elder generation, who had the same opportunity for large parts of their lifetimes, just takes it away for reasons that seem nearly incomprehensible.
I’m still hoping for the UK to kinda officially leave but put in place enough new treaties so that nothing much actually changes. The Leave-fraction can sell that as a big victory, but, like, I can live with a UK in a similar position to Norway. As most of politics is posing and overselling and doing symbolic stuff anyway, this might work out quite well if everybody plays along.
If the young Remainers are really determined, they should all just move to the EU. Like, right now. Literally all of them. I don’t expect the EU to turn down a wave of young workers and the UK is left with half of its population on a pension.
Is that something they can do? Does EU citizenship work like that?
The fact that this is something that people can do is part of why the UK just left.
But if you mean legally, then yes. Their passports should still be good on current terms until the exit is formalized, and who is going to kick them out afterwards?
But I mean will they still be UK citizens after the Brexit becomes law? Or will they become citizens of their current resident countries? Or just stateless EU citizens?
As far as I understand it, they would remain UK citizens whose residence in the EU would then become subject to the terms of the Brexit and ordinary EU policy.
But, I don’t expect that the EU would kick them out.
This. The rest of Europe is actually pretty civilized and the risk of getting deported would be basically nil.
