Current AffairsCzech politicians say restrictions on free movement of workers within EU should be removed
When Czech politicians were convincing Czech voters to say "yes"
in the referendum two years ago on joining the EU, one of the things they
promised was that Czech workers would be able to find a job anywhere in
the European Union. But with the exception of the United Kingdom, Ireland
and Sweden, all "old" EU members introduced temporary legal
barriers against a feared influx of workers from the east. No such thing
has materialised in the three countries that allowed free movement of
labour and that's one of the reasons why Czech politicians are now calling
for the removal of those restrictions in the rest of the old EU 15.
