environmental to china should. be using all channels available to school people to take action and more determined to do something here for the next generation the idea is for the environment series of global 3000 on t.w. and all mine. in. the u.k. has left the european union the world's biggest trading bloc just got smaller now person begins the business of striking deals with the rest of the world. one of the main bones of contention in the e.u. and britain was freedom of movement we take a look at all frets it could mean for workers in jobs. british overseas tariff reach or growth because of direct border with a new member spain look at the situation for the business continuity is that. this

is the doing business on robots in berlin welcome along. the u.k. is no longer a member of the european union he used 28 member states became 27 midnight brussels time these were the scenes when the moment came in london. 3 and a half years after the u.k. 1st votes to leave the e.u. the bells hold for bracks it now is left to the u.k. to find a new place in the world separate from its former european partners. but for now nothing really changes for the next 11 months the u.k. remains subject to european union regulations and standards during that transition period britain and the e.u. will try to negotiate a new relationship with the aim of voting a new deal breaks at the end of this year the time is not on their side. it's a race against time. the u.k. and the e.u.

have until the end of 2022 to find their new post brecht's that relationship and there's still a long way to go so one of the issues that need sorting trade is the biggest one i think the trade relation between the 2 how are we going to trade with each other are we going to have tariffs or are we not going to have types in the way that we have changed goods and services that's going to be i think the biggest thing to do a successful outcome on this key issue will depend on the u.k. agreeing to the e.u.'s calls for a level playing field the e.u. wants the u.k. to stick to e.u. rules out of fear that the u.k. will lower its standards or profit from unfair advantages but for british negotiators being freed of this one of the main drivers for bracks it so talks will be tough in my view e.u. has a symmetrically bigger power when it comes to when it comes to trade each country there you would be using one market the u.k. would be losing $27.00 markets. there is one element where i think the u.k.

has got perhaps more of a say that is in the financial markets and that is basically london this city has served as a major financial hub for the whole of the e.u. as the e.u. doesn't want to lose that expertise the u.k. cook used the city of london as a bargaining chip in the negotiations and then there's the issue of fishing rights that could be a stumbling stone on the bumpy road to bracks taking back control of british waters was a key breck's a campaign pledge but the u.k. may have to compromise if it doesn't want the issue to scupper chances of finalizing a deal with the e.u. the u.k. leaving in my view was unjustified and therefore i believe that it's going to be an economic cost for the u.k. so the closer we can keep when it comes down to the way we do trade for example the better it's going to be for both of us it's going to be an extremely tight race to get things done by the end of the year. now negotiations about the u.k.'s future

relationship with the e.u. begin in earnest in early march a key issue is free trade plus the status of e.u. workers in britain and vice versa european union is pushing to ensure that e.u. citizens enjoy the greatest possible freedom of movement even after breaks it but they may have to fight to get what they want. 3.2000000 equal citizens are currently living and working in the u.k. and according to the withdrawal agreement they'll have residency rights for the rest of their lives the same applies to the 1200000 brits living in the e.u. states but there may be obstacles for new arrivals in the future after all ending freedom of movement was one of the main reasons why many brits supported that is there's a chance for other countries. mclucas this coming from about forced and this could actually present an opportunity for the european union and because if britain decides it no longer wants to invite over skilled workers then it's important for

a country like germany to be an attractive option for them because we may very well be facing a shortage of workers in the coming years i would be more than what i would name and in the. among other countries germany is hoping it will create new jobs several companies are considering relocating to germany from britain and there's been much interest in the financial sector in particular several banks have already moved their european headquarters to frankfurt or at least open branches there 1500 new jobs have been created there already many of which have been filled by put their citizens. well enjoy the vast majority of people voted to remain in the e.u. but the british overseas territory shares a border with the best spain has been hotly contested at times after breaks it will be subject to british trade rules everyone now hopes any complications or not can be solved all known as the of course including german residents of spain who work in gibraltar surely textbook examples of the benefits of freedom of movement in

europe. jani smock font is on his way to work on a mild sunny morning the german ex-pat believes in spain but is employed in gibraltar 15000 workers commute across the border like this every day. you have the best of both worlds of good british salary in pounds and the spanish lifestyle that my family and i are fond of. the fed younis works for the betting company lotto land the business has customers everywhere including the e.u. a competitor has already relocated many jobs to the tax haven malta and e.u. member state a lot of land is continuing to grow in gibraltar though and the boss says he's not worried. i think net net there's been very little change in the gaming industry certainly we have no intention to move we have a license that i use in one jurisdictions including multinationals from the cultural european facing business but we don't have the stuff that we've no

intention of moving significant stuff from the minister of finance doesn't see it as a threat to gibraltar as future 92 percent of its financial services business is conducted with the u.k. the bigger issue is the border with spain when you've got 1415000 people crossing the front in the morning to come into work and back in the evening it's a lot of people so we need to be sure that we have put in the time and the effort as we want to. show there is no disruption to the fluidity which is critical to both spain in terms of the surrounding area and the income that derives for them and for us in terms of the labor force comes into work the border doesn't just separate countries it separates 2 very different economies the g.d.p. per capita is 4 times higher in japan alter than in spain without gibraltar spain would be much weaker the mayor of the neighboring city law hopes that everything will continue as agreed. jed the big benefit or course he had to choose here in

2013 it took people 4 or 5 hours to get to and from gibraltar and we're talking about people who work there every day. people on both sides of the border are hoping that brags it won't harm their way of life. i feel very very sad as a european it's just very sad. if. starting saturday the e.u. flag will no longer fly here communities on both sides hope that will be the only change. back in britain itself days particularly poignant for those with close ties across the channel take for example the people of st margaret's it cliff one of the closest points between the u.k. and its neighbors friends. the white cliffs of dover for

centuries they were a symbol of britain's power and independence and these days they take on special meaning especially for those living right here on the coast. margaret said cliff is a hamlet of 2500 people literally within eyesight of france indeed cell phone calls are usually routed through the french network as the nearby cliff blocks access to the british signal. or yeah we're really proud of you know our relationship with his neighbors in france you know they're literally less than 20 miles away from where we were sitting now. we've always had a. good relationship with people with good friends on the continent and now i think they're looking at us and there's an element of distrust think people start to look at what's happened happening in this country and. they don't feel they can trust coming here anymore for gavin oakley that translates into empty hotel rooms usually

70 percent of his rooms are booked at this time of year currently it's 5 percent over at the village store if uncertainty over breaks it runs high if this is meant to happen then. that is happening. to. me already waited for more than 3 years almost 3 years now. it has been putting they can all me. on to hold. hopefully it's going to move on from here on it totally dependent on one another. and i don't think they can do without those we cannot do without them we want to do the best. for some the best they can do on a day like this it's going over to the pub have a pint and reflect on what's been going on not everyone here is worried about the future. it's been
