Secretary of State for Work & Pensions v Gubeladze [2019] UKSC 31

Tamara Gubeladze was hoping for a quiet retirement in the UK having spent most of her life in Latvia. She thought that she had met all the conditions necessary to be entitled to a state pension but the Secretary of State denied her request for failing to comply with the Worker Registration Scheme that was established in the UK after Latvia joined the European Union. As the Supreme Court decides her fate we take the opportunity in this episode to also consider how principles of EU law have impacted our own legal tradition and whether this will change after Brexit.
