evidence: The truth about young people and Brexit - Published [...] In fact, while Steven accepts that "most young people voted Remain," he thinks, "Brexit is an amazing opportunity for young people" because "it means we can sign free-trade deals around the world, reducing tariffs on consumer goods from phones to food, and making our hard-earned cash go even further." After Brexit, he hopes issues like housing will get more attention because the Government could spend "the £10bn a year we currently send to the EU on young people's priorities, such as housing". However, that's not currently Government policy. [...] Stephen Kinnock MP, 48, is the chair of the APPG. He tells BBC Three that their research suggests that what young people really want above all else is to "preserve the strongest possible economic, scientific and cultural links between the UK and the EU". He adds that, "a ‘no deal’, or ‘hard’ Brexit represents a major risk to the economy and therefore to young people’s life chances."
