UK's Rudd says UK will apply its own immigration rules after Brexit

UK interior minister quoted in the FT 27 July

  • but the rules will meet the needs of business and wider society
  • UK is listening to business on immigration

Does that wider society include the EU?

  • I want to reassure business and EU nationals that there will be no cliff edge once UK leaves EU

Let's wait and see eh?

UK immigration minister Lewis adds this:

  • free movement of labour will end when UK leaves EU
  • new immigration system will be in place by March 2019

That's the end of the 2year Article 50 Brexit process ofc and the clock is ticking.

Meanwhile GBPUSD drifting off to 1.3130 with EURGBP dipping further to 0.8925 as EURUSD retreats to 1.1715
