Sigh ... after 20 years of research with British citizens living in the EU, I am still facing these ridiculous and unevidenced stereotypes. What's wrong with this @pollytoynbee? 1/
Alex Taylor@AlexTaylorNews

Dear @pollytoynbee - if you want to deny certain British citizens the vote, stop organizing referendums which take away our rights without us even having a say .. and don't stop us punishing those who did it to us ! We're on the same side ... and PS stop calling us "expats" !

I gave an interview this week to the Guardian about the situation in Portugal 👇 For Portugal to state not issuing British immigrants living there with correct residency documentation has no structural implications is utter nonsense. And dangerous. theguardian.com/politics/2022/…

Along with @BritishInEurope i've been warning that we needed to keep an eye on the implementation of #brexit #citizensrights for #britsineu since 2018. This article quoting @tig_james shows some of the consequences of continuing delays in this process.

Over @_migzen_ we're looking for British citizens who lived in the EU/EEA before #Brexit but have since returned to the UK to take part in an interview. Do you fit the bill or know someone who does? If so, Please RT or get in touch. More info below migzen.net/blog/call-for-…

What a find in #BBCReportage archives - this goes to the heart of some of the testimonies I collected for @BrExpatsEU research - young Brits moving with EU in the 1990s with the promise of an integrated EU labour market, still there in 30 years later. Thx @viewmagazine 1/

Who remembers BBC Reportage? It was on BBC 2. Just found this in my files; one of my earliest reports. This would be about 30 yrs old now - grads talking about working in Europe !!!!! I remember it for not telling my mum or fam I was on TV.
