Brexit was always going to be a disaster for so many, but as is usually the way, it’s young people who felt the biggest impact. The rejoining of Erasmus is a meaningful win, next we need the right for under 25s to live and work in the EU.

SUPERB and angrily unvarnished response, by former BBC chairman, Lord Patten.

For those who don’t work in youth work, it’s hard to describe how bleak it is out there.
We just pulled the rug on a generation of young people and are now shrugging our shoulders and hoping social media is the cause of all ills because then it feels less of our fault
