For the first time in a generation, the UK will be able to decide who comes into the country, based on the skills they have to offer - not where they are from.

In a first of its kind between the two countries, both governments have agreed enhanced mobility provisions for young professional Indian and British citizens which will allow people to live and work in the two countries for up to two years.

We are now part of the 'rest of the world' so there is no obligation for the EU or the countries in it to treat us in any other way, and I don't expect them to either.
