Sir Sadiq Khan has urged the government to agree a youth mobility scheme with the European Union, saying it could save Britain from the “economic storm” of Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs.
Writing in The Independent, the London mayor said such an agreement – which would allow 18- to 35-year-olds to move and work freely between countries for up to two years – is “long overdue and now needs to be considered” in order to boost growth across Britain and Europe in the face of the trade taxes.
