We have been campaigning for a UK-EU Youth Mobility Scheme for 5 yrs with superb partners @ABTAMembers @LMPetherbridge & @BestForBritain @pimlicat. So I was proud to be at #LabourConference2025 to hear the chancellor speak positively about the govt’s intention to implement this.
Seasonal Businesses in Travel (SBiT) and ABTA have revealed new research showing strong public support for securing a youth experience deal with the EU, as it urges the government to press ahead with negotiations with the EU following May’s UK-EU Summit. 1/n
Here is the report from June 2023
A new @SBIT_UK and @ABTAtravel report says a 69% drop in UK travel staff working in the is EU set to impact travel businesses’ growth. They are calling for improved UK-EU employee mobility arrangements and outline simple and sensible policy solutions. sbit.org.uk/s/SBiT-Unlocking…

Thank you James for bringing this to debate in the HoC.
SBiT supports calls for a UK-EU YMS Many current leaders in the uk tourism sector started their careers by working in the EU as holiday reps, chalet staff, bar staff.
