""A vital text revealing the realities of Brexit from the perspectives of those at the coalface. Methodologically innovative, the study offers a rich, and multi-faceted analysis, from the micro to the macro and everything in between. The authors give a characteristically sensitive and compelling insight into the lives of EU nationals in low paid positions. The accounts are moving, sometimes disturbing, but always enlightening. The book is full of original observations; the exploration of the disruption caused by administratively ‘othering’ EU nationals, and the deep dive into ‘pragmatic law’ – the ways people approach their problems on an everyday basis – make this a must-read for any socio-legal scholar."" Charlotte O’Brien, University of York “A unique book which enriches our understanding of the extreme precariousness facing many EU migrants within the UK and the changing role of the advice sector in providing crucial support.” Nicole Busby, University of Glasgow
