00:09and something like that. It's a great opportunity to explore the world, get some familiar with travelling,

00:19and it just seems like a great idea overall.
00:22It's like the right to move around, isn't it? So I think that helps everyone, really,

00:38It's just giving you that freedom to move about.

00:54So being able to go and live in a country and figure out if I do want to be travelling abroad all the time
00:58and away from home, I think it's a really good idea, to be fair.
01:01As long as it's done legally, yeah, I think people within the UK being able to travel across Europe,
01:07yeah, and likewise other people from Europe coming into the UK,
01:10but as long as there's a policy to follow and, yeah, it's adhered to.
