There is no reform of free movement involved in the EEA. The UK cannot show harm from FM, it cannot invoke temporary restrictions. twitter.com/SKinnock/statu…
Sick of UK pols STILL going on about “reform” (meaning, “Do what UK demands”). That’s over. Options are accept free movement or hard Brexit.
If UK thinks massive economic harm is OK if they can get rid of some Poles, fine, their call. “Reform free movement” == “cake and eat it”.
It’s not an option, it’s even less an option than before, and politicians who invoke it are painting themselves and UK further into a corner
