"" free movement does not, in truth, demand zero regulation of labour flows. The UK opted for the loosest application of the policy. Other EU states are fussier, requiring registration, health insurance and proven job offers as conditions of settlement. A report published on Tuesday by Global Future, a liberal thinktank, sets out ways that migration might be managed without ripping the UK out of the shared European economic space from which it has unquestionably benefited.

Such technical solutions alone cannot dispel public anxiety around demographic change and cultural dislocation, but they are necessary tools in the debating arsenal. Likewise, abstract assertions that migration is economically advantageous get little purchase with people who suspect the advantages flow out of their communities. The liberal argument has to be couched within a bigger offer of prosperity and opportunity more fairly distributed. ""

I'm still sick of the talk of free movement wthout admission that the the UK never applied the available EU rules .
