At the heart of talks over Britain's exit from the European Union will be what happens to the EU's four founding principles - the free movement of goods, services, people and capital - when it comes to dealing with Britain. The free movement of people has been especially problematic. Concern about immigration was a key factor in persuading a majority of British citizens to vote for Brexit in last year's referendum. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Mike Johnson discussed the issue with Michael Sippitt, chairman of the law firm Clarkslegal, which advises UK and international businesses.
