This is far more important than a simple political move by a member of the EU and this post has nothing to do with politics, Brexit Yes Brexit No. The realities of many Camino routes have been marked by the entrance of many British nationals as owners of restaurants, gites in France, hotels, and service providers. This has been a heartening move since suddenly we find millions of French peopl;e who CAN speak English as competition tightens. However, the draft agreement which is far from being approved in the British parliament, contains some encouraging words"
Freedom of movement
The draft document provides protections for the more than three million EU citizens in the UK, and over one million UK nationals in EU countries to continue to live, work or study as they currently do.
Crucially, "no exit visa, entry visa or equivalent formality shall be required of holders of a valid document issued" for EU and UK nationals when crossing national boarders within the bloc.
Encouraging words but we must wait and see how the Brexit issue finally is resolved.
