“I woke up with a sense of dread…” — from an EU citizen in the UK on how Labour’s new rhetoric is shaking people’s sense of belonging. Powerful open letter. 👇

I’m not surprised The hate against EU citizens following Brexit has made many to reconsider them staying in UK And in fact, according to ONS, more than 100,000 EU citizens, net, leave the UK to the EU each year. So the Brexit hate was a success from a net migration point of view…

Yeah I remember it very well😢

Have you experienced hate? Genuine question. I moved in '96 to UK from The Netherlands, I never experienced any hate after Brexit, Brits actually seem to quite like it I'm Dutch. Starmer's remarks are appalling for their stupidity, not because I suddenly expect to get hate.

I have been made extremely uncomfortable even by a husbands friend once who asked me when I was going to go home. Home meaning France. I was looked at for speaking French in the street. That was after the vote in a high remain city . Ah and the «  it’s not you » ffs.

Maybe it's different for men and women and nationalities?
