Derren Hayes talks to Elliott Goat, co-leader of youth democracy movement Undivided.

In the days following last summer's referendum on the UK's membership of the European Union (EU), 28-year-old journalist Elliott Goat helped establish Undivided, a nationwide youth-led campaign to get the best possible Brexit deal for young people. Since then, Undivided has engaged with millions of young people on the impact of Brexit and what issues they think should be prioritised in negotiations.
