Hope summer has been good to you. Some updates:
Last week the lawyers involved indicated they were still waiting on legal aid approval. There is some confidence that this will be granted, as will permission to appeal to Supreme Court, possibly for a hearing in February next year. However nothing is for certain yet. More to come when more is known.
Surinder Singh
Please
find here the first version of the Surinder Singh country specific
guide. This collates experience of some members (my sincere thanks to
these people) who have exercised treaty rights in various member states,
covering Residence Card application process to rentals; from best
places to find a job to supermarkets; from mobile phone networks to
issues faced in opening a bank account. There is currently substantive
information for Czech Republic, Greece, Ireland and Malta.
Some
have put their hand up to be in-country mentors to those who need more
help and these mentors will also organise local meetups.
There are lots of gaps still to be filled in (especially for Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain) so pls do your bit to help us help others by dropping me an email with some pointers along the lines of what you have learnt, what you wish you had known before embarking on your SS journey etc It doesn't have to be major - can even be something as small as recommended restaurants!
If you have any experience you wish to share or are keen to be a mentor, please let me know.

Scotland independence referendum
Next
week as you're aware is the Scottish independence referendum. A lot is
in the media about what people north and south of the border feel would
be best. Not much however seems to have been said from the perspective
of migrants - which is where you guys come in. You could be the first
or second generation migrant; have migrant parents or be the migrant
partner.
If this is you, it would be great if you could spend just five minutes this weekend to write a paragraph or two (max 400 words) on the emotions evoked by the words British as opposed to say English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish. Which one/(s) do you identify with?
