No, actually it's as big or bigger than the article suggests.
There is no longer the 2-year transition period in which EU workers can work in the UK, and UK workers work in the EU.
This means that existing working arrangements will be severely disrupted. Each week, there are hundreds of thousands of people crossing the border, a significant proportion of them for work, including providing on-site support services, training, professional engagements or just cross-channel commuting.
