UK Visas and British Citizenship

We have decided to sum up the Government Brexit visa proposals, that is what they disclosed so far.   We were prompted to make this table by a recent Daily Mail article    EU citizens until 31.12.2020 (based on Government publication here) Non-EU citizens now (based on current Immigration Rules under Points-Based System) EU and non-EU citizens after 31.12.2018 (based on the proposals so far) Who can come and work in the UK?
