Brexit and the EU Settlement Scheme

“The above discussion is only an initial excursion into Brexit’s impact on the future of EU immigration in the UK. Since the referendum was really a snap vote on immigration rather than the merits of leaving the EU, we will have to hang on tight and wait and see what the future holds. Because it will be very easy for the government of the day to change the content of Appendix EU, it is fair to say that those blindly applauding Sajid Javid and his department for the scheme resemble the characters in Alice in Wonderland. Ultimately, like the referendum result itself, history will best judge these developments. And in my view history will not look kindly on Appendix EU. Nor should it.”
