That's true, however the feeling at the coal face doesn't have much confidence in those assurances. I had lunch today with some French and German colleagues who work in the UK and they are not reassured to be honest. Whether those fears are justified or not is by the by - they want something in writing rather than promises. They feel they are being held hostage to Brexit negotiations.
They also commented on how the atmosphere and attitudes have changed towards them since the vote. Being asked when they are going home by other parents at the school gates in front of their kids was not a nice feeling...
