Other than that, I've just been watching old movies for the past few weeks.


Yes, agreed- Better Call Saul is excellent. If you like Bob Odenkirk (Saul) he is also in The Post on Netflix which is about an American newspaper.

Freedom of Movement isn't as unrestricted as the right-wing media suggest (or at least, it doesn't have to be): https://ukandeu.ac.uk/we-can-control-eu-migration-we-just-havent-done-it/ There is one section (article 8) of the EU Human Rights Law signed away by Brown in the Lisbon Treaty that gives ...
