Save Freedom of Movement

We’re here to promote mobility in the UK and Europe. We back calls to rejoin the EU and Single Market and work with campaigners from other organisations who want to do that too.

Here’s why Freedom of Movement matters youtu.be/JYA3gVGxlnw

Here’s the big question? Could Brexit simply be reversed?

Fed up of counting days? There are certainly ways that politicians could solve this problem quickly… A thread 🧵

Thread on solving the 90-in-180 day problem 🧵 The solutions to the 90-in-180 day problem are many and varied. Politicians really have **no** excuse for inaction. Any of the following provide models for solutions or are solutions in themselves…

Freedom of Movement isn’t about visiting other countries. It’s about being at home there. @savefom.bsky.social

#FreedomOfMovement makes travel easier. It also allows people to relocate permanently or on a temporary basis. It’s governed by clear rules are designed around the best interests of citizens. #SaveFOM #RestoreFOM @savefom.bsky.social

I don’t fear the euro. And I run @savefom.bsky.social so I certainly don’t fear Freedom of Movement either. But I want to rejoin the EU as rapidly as possible in a way that is as acceptable as possible to the most number of people so that it lasts.

You only have to look at the number of people who suddenly found me after 2016, many of whom voted Brexit to realise a lot of Brits do see the positive case for at least having their FOM And now with the disastrous EES rollout highlighting their status as nonEuropeans Time to @savefom.bsky.social

This tool from @europeanmovement.co.uk has been quite successful I gather www.europeanmovement.co.uk/contact-mp-a...

And here is my own template suggestion: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Could restoring freedom of movement help unlock the Brexit impasse? Save Freedom of Movement founder Andrew Hesselden explains why it could be an important part of rebuilding the UK’s relationship with Europe. Watch: youtu.be/JYA3gVGxlnw

Imagine a Europe where someone in Madrid, Berlin or Helsinki can once again choose to build a life in Manchester, Cardiff or Edinburgh — and British people have the same freedom across Europe. That’s what we’re fighting for. Follow @savefom.bsky.social.

Brexit didn’t just end freedom of movement for British citizens. It also ended the automatic freedom of EU, EEA and Swiss citizens to come to the UK to live, work and study. @savefom.bsky.social wants to restore those freedoms for everyone. Follow and support us.

To our friends across the EU, EEA and Switzerland: restoring freedom of movement isn’t only a British issue. We want Europeans to regain the freedom to live, work and study in the UK too. Follow @savefom.bsky.social and help us make the case for mutual freedom of movement.

Freedom of movement was mutual. EU, EEA and Swiss citizens had the freedom to live, work and study in the UK, just as British citizens did across Europe. We want those opportunities back — in both directions. Follow @savefom.bsky.social and support our work.

If you’re an EU, EEA or Swiss citizen who believes Europeans and British people should once again have the freedom to live, work, study and build lives in each other’s countries, follow @savefom.bsky.social. We’re campaigning to restore mutual freedom of movement.

As an EU citizen would you like to regain Freedom of Movement in the UK? @savefom.bsky.social

“Freedom of movement wasn’t just a nice perk for people who could already afford to travel. For working-class young people like me, it meant opportunity. It was the possibility of studying in Paris, working in Berlin, or falling in love in Barcelona..” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Who's ridiculous idea is this? Freedom of Movement is a good thing in its own right. EU laws? Why not? Just join the Single Market, if they will let us.

Any politician who doesn't think freedom of movement is worth fighting for ought to be given a job that involves crossing the Schengen border with a UK passport every day and see how it fucking feels. The ninety-first day would be particularly interesting.

We need freedom of movement of Services too.

"Non-EU member states which adhere to EU rules on freedom of movement also enjoy the same mutual recognition of professional qualifications. The same mutual recognition was rejected for the UK during the Brexit negotiations because the UK did not want to be in the EU single market."

If Luigi doesn’t like “mutual” we don’t need to bother asking for that for him then. He can stand for himself instead.

84% of the British people support mutual freedom of movement

Well, I would like "full fat" freedom of movement like we had before.

regarding employment, pay, and social benefits. But no one ever considers the fact that we actually already have Freedom of Movement within the UK! All we're doing by not being part of the EU is denying ourselves, our families, our friends the opportunities that Freedom of Movement presents!

Freedom of Movement allows EU citizens and their family members to live, work, study, and travel across any EU member state, plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland, without needing a visa or work permit. It guarantees equal treatment to local citizens

What we already have versus what we're scared of: Freedom of Movement allows UK citizens and their family members to live, work, study, and travel across the UK without restriction! It guarantees equal treatment whether you're English, Scots, Welsh or Irish wherever you are!

We don’t think number 1 or 5 are true

Post-Brexit rights for British citizens are being undermined in Sweden

Freedom of Movement is far more popular than people realise. Niall should be making that point instead of being inflammatory.

Someone in Labour needs to be clear. Freedom of movement was always a good thing. The objections to it were always both false and xenophobic.

Three dozen countries now offer greater freedom of movement for their citizens than the United States.

Whatever happens also needs to be good for Britain as well as other EU members. It can’t only be Niall’s “my way or the highway”. We need to restore mutual Freedom of Movement

Are you an EU Citizen living in the UK, who has been told by the Home Office that your settled status has been revoked? We urge UK gov to rethink and take a more generous and lenient approach. Join our campaign to restore mutual Freedom of Movement between UK and EU, EEA & Switzerland.

I think it’s time to be a lot more direct and blunt about the 90-in-180-day problem and the problems post Brexit with EES and people mobility in Europe. It really is time for change, and I’m so pleased that the British parliament is starting to look at this now. We are starting to be heard ♥️ 🇬🇧 🇪🇺

People should complain about the 90-in-180-day problem. As loudly as possible! 💥 📣 This is how we make the case for better people mobility. Without people getting enthusiastic about international mobility again, it will not be possible to rejoin the single Market or EU. It’s a vital part of it.
