    I think a lot about our birthrights as EU citizens that the Brexiters stole from every Briton. But there’s also something really tragic when you think about the sliding doors personal stories that result from Brexit and the theft of our freedom of movement.

    I know many people today who met their partners before Brexit, as a result of freedom of movement. I know children who wouldn’t have been born if Britain hadn’t been in the EU. If you project that forward from 2016: there would be children alive today who were never conceived and never born, because their parents never met, because of Brexit.
