If one looks at the history of UK and EU relations, the UK Leave vote may
not seem a surprise. Attempts were made by the EU to enable further membership of
the UK. Despite the Leave vote “offers” to the UK might still be relevant for other
Member States. Among the most intriguing questions are: what social security rights
will persons moving between the EU and the UK have after Brexit? Will there be an
agreement including them or not, or will reliance be put on old and outdated bilateral
agreements? Could the coordination instruments of the Council or Europe or the ILO
be applied? Solutions will have to be found, since people will not stop moving just
because of Brexit.
