Youth mobility scheme could be part of EU deal, PM signals

  • Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer indicated that a youth mobility arrangement might be included in a new UK-EU agreement to be discussed at the London summit on May 19, 2025.
  • This development follows previous UK rejection of EU proposals and ongoing concerns about immigration control and visa restrictions after Brexit.
  • The scheme would allow young people under 30 to travel and work between the UK and EU for a limited period, expected up to two years, with caps likely applied.
  • Starmer described it as a "reciprocal" arrangement distinct from pre-Brexit freedom of movement, while opposition voices warned of risks including increased unemployment.
  • If agreed, the scheme could boost cultural and economic ties, improve youth opportunities, and signal progress in resetting UK-EU relations post-Brexit.
