Theresa May Scraps Brexit Fee for EU Nationals

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

EU nationals in the UK will no longer have to pay the £65 fee to remain after Brexit. The announcement was part of the prime minister's so-called 'Plan B' - proposals set out after her Brexit deal was rejected by MPs last week. What will this mean for Europeans living and working in the UK? The chat app WhatsApp restricts users from forwarding messages more than five times in an effort to stop the spread of fake news. We speak to Melisa Basol from the University of Cambridge who studies how messaging can be used in this way. Nigel Cassidy is joined throughout the programme by business journalist and author Diane Brady in New York and Bloomberg economics correspondent Enda Curran in Hong Kong.
