I find it odd the way people act as if the freedom of movement thing is a God-given right that has existed since time immemorial rather than something that's been around 20-odd years. The way some people go on, you'd think nobody ever travelled or worked abroad before 1992.
This is what i don't get. He talks as though he can decide he wants to live in Italy tomorrow and **** off and live there because he's an EU citizen. That's not how it works. You still have to meet certain criteria like having employment in the country. In terms of wanting to live and work in another EU country Brexit means having to look from outside instead of inside the country, which while not as convenient it's not impossible. Millions of people around the world do it.
