Until then, the UK will broadly follow EU rules while negotiators attempt to thrash out a future trade deal. Currently, the parties are able to extend that transition by up to two years.

Out of university halls and into homelessness

By Alice Porter, BBC Victoria Derbyshire programme

More Than 8,000 university students in the UK are estranged from their families, figures show. They often experience severe financial difficulties, loneliness and even homelessness during The Holidays . Cereza, a student at Queen Mary University of London, describes her childhood as very difficult. Leaving for university, she says, was the "final thing that tore My Family apart".
