Closed A deal between Australia and the UK for less restrictive working visas.

Closed on

As a British Citizen currently living in Australia on a working holiday visa, I believe that the current visa limitations are detrimental for the two nations who would both profit from a more relaxed movement of labour between the the two nations. With Brexit looming this could fill a lost skill gap

Currently obtaining a sponsorship to continue working in Australia is difficult and costly to obtain. Likewise for Australians trying to live and work in the U.K. It's costly and difficult. The commonwealth should be utilised more to benefit the citizens and the countries involved.
