The United Kingdom faces a momentous decision, whether to leave or to remain in the European Union. Voters, who will soon be asked to settle the matter in a referendum, are looking for more information and impartial analysis. At this Q&A event, we discussed the issues at stake with the help of a panel of academic specialists.

Among the matters we covered:

• The impact of the EU on the economy and jobs
• Immigration
• National sovereignty and the political implications of Europe
• Impact on South Yorkshire
