- The European Union has given approval to begin detailed discussions with the UK regarding post-Brexit youth visas.
- Campaigners have hailed this decision as a "massive step forward" for young people in the UK, aiming to restore opportunities lost after Brexit.
- The proposed scheme would allow 18 to 30-year-olds from the UK to work in EU countries and young EU citizens to work in the UK for short periods.
- Conditions for the youth visa scheme include no access to benefits, no accompanying family members, and payment of an immigration health surcharge.
- This development follows a recent poll indicating that a majority of Britons now desire the UK to rejoin the European Union.
