    Isn’t this the cherry picking that the EU didn’t want to happen?

    Much better to adopt a EU-wide scheme rather than to pick and chose among different countries. Sunak tries it and failed. Like most Tory policies since the decision to hold a referendum on EU membership.

      He did very publicly oppose Brexit. Good to see he’s trying reset the relationship now that it’s happened.

        So did all the other goons before him including even the biggest moron of them all, the guy who organized the referendum.

    Account-locked article so can’t read it.

    Does it explain how they expect to enforce British youth not going outside of Spain to other EU countries?

    Starmer is open to the idea. Is Spain? Will Brussels allow Spain effectively to set their own immigration policy?

      Technically it’s allowed. The question is if Spain wants to burn political capital over it.

        Reading the article it does not strike me as burning political capital necessarily. If the “hurr durr Brexit” crowd needs to be slow boiled into reintegrating into the EU, then this is also in the interest of the EU as a whole.

        And so far the EU played it quite well, being the “more adult” party to the whole Brexit fiasco. Given the fast shift of global power and the potential ramifications of a second Trump presidency for the security architecture of the EU, reintegrating Britain is more important than ever before.

          If the UK pick and chooses what benefits they get from EU it’s not slow boiling. It’s having their cake and eating it too.
