Festival of Europe presents: Young Brits on the Future of Europe

The effects of Brexit will be felt for decades to come. It follows from this that young people are going to suffer for longer and, in many ways, more severely than many people due to the particular impacts of Brexit on their life chances. The freedom to study, work, settle and travel freely within the European Union has been stripped away and the UK has removed itself from programmes such as Erasmus, which offered such opportunities to young people to experience life away from this small island. What do young people think about this sad state of affairs? Do they feel motivated to do something about it and make the reversal of Brexit, which many see as inevitable, a reality?
