Sweden has deported 458 British citizens since Brexit — the first time the full number is public — sparking outrage as elderly residents, some with dementia and others who’ve lived in Sweden for decades, are forced to leave. Activists demand clarity on whether these figures include voluntary departures or forced removals, while data reveals nearly 4,000 post-Brexit residency applications were rejected — far higher than in other EU nations. Recent cases involve families torn apart after years of legal battles. Though Sweden insists it followed the law and offered appeals, the UK Foreign Office says late applicants won’t be excused despite withdrawal agreement provisions. Both governments agree to review the process, while Swedish opposition pushes for new laws to allow Britons to reapply — calling for a more compassionate policy.
