"It’s perhaps ironic that it took #Brexit to trigger signs of a kind of bottom-up legitimacy that the #EU has long struggled to generate.” @ESRC @_migzen_ researchers @nandosigona, @Michaelacbenson and @catherineruth write in @ConversationUK theconversation.com/brexit-s… fyi @UKandEU

Brexit sparked greater attachment to the European Union in UK and EU citizens living abroad, survey...

Europeans living in the Uk and British people living in Europe say they’ve been giving more thought to their identities since Brexit.

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/202…

Almost 35,000 Britons in limbo as Portugal fails to issue post-Brexit ID cards

British nationals living in country are unable to access healthcare, change jobs or travel in and out
