Oxford MEP supports Oxford University leaders’ plea to keep EU nationals in the UK

In response to a letter from 35 Oxford University College leaders saying the university would suffer “enormous damage” if the Government fails to safeguard the future of EU nationals living in the UK, Catherine Bearder commented:

"The government must guarantee the rights of EU citizens living in the UK immediately.

"Without a cast-iron guarantee, the UK risks losing essential EU workers and academics at Oxford University and other universities to Europe and elsewhere.

"Our Universities are some of the best in the world, this government is risking that reputation by putting them on the back burner."
