New polling has revealed an overwhelming majority - 76% - of Brits support the creation of a youth experience scheme with the European Union (EU).
The YouGov research, commissioned by The Travel Association (ABTA), alongside Seasonal Businesses in Travel (SBiT) also found strong support for a deal enabling young Brits and EU citizens to work, live and study overseas among all voter types.
This included 61% of those who voted to the leave the EU in 2016.
It comes after Best for Britain's UK Trade and Business Commission (UKTBC) first recommended the creation of a youth mobility scheme in 2021, and after polling found earlier this year that a majority in every constituency in Great Britain supported the creation of such a scheme.
Tom Brufatto, director of policy at Best for Britain, said:
“A deal on youth mobility would create new opportunities for young UK and EU citizens alike, as first proposed by the UK Trade and Business Commission in 2021, and, as Best for Britain’s polling found earlier this year, is favoured in every constituency in Great Britain.
“The government must now use this welcome momentum to work at speed with the EU to finalise a deal so Brits can feel the economic benefits - no more time should be wasted.”
