[11] She continued to research the movement of Scots overseas, and, in 2015, co-edited The Scottish Diaspora together with Professor Graeme Morton and Dr Andrew Hinson.
[14] In 2017, Bueltmann published the co-authored monograph The English Diaspora in North America: Migration, Ethnicity and Association, 1730s-1950s, the output of an AHRC funded grant.
[15] Bueltmann argues that amid the uproar about migrant populations trying to seek refuge within the UK, it is easy to forget the historic outward migration of Britons.
[26] In March 2017 she attended Newcastle's pro-EU rally, and, when interviewed by the BBC, said she had moved from Germany to "contribute to life and society in the UK and I think I've been doing that every single day since I arrived eight years ago".
[28] Since Britain's vote to leave the EU, she has written articles for a number of newspapers and online platforms, including The Guardian,[29] HuffPost UK,[30] and Metro.
[33] When the government made a plea for EU academics to remain in the UK, Bueltmann told The Independent newspaper: "if they really meant they want us to stay, they would have guaranteed our rights fully on 24 June 2016".
The campaign serves two purposes: to support the3million, the UK's leading not for profit organisation working to protect EU citizens’ rights, with a fundraiser, and to facilitate engagement activities that help change the narrative about freedom of movement and migration.
