Do you think the UK will the work restrictions for Bulgarians and Romanians before 2012 Olympics?
Bulgarians and Romanians can currently work freely in 14 EU member states; the latest fife countries who liften the restrictions were Denmark, Greece, Hungary, Spain and Portugal.

"In principle, full free movement of workers should apply after the end of the second phase (31 December 2011). Member States can only maintain restrictions thereafter if there is a serious disturbance (or threat thereof) to the labour market. All restrictions for workers from Bulgaria and Romania must be lifted by 31 December 2013 at the very latest when full free movement of workers will apply across the EU-27."
