Reports & Briefings
Malcolm Harvey

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 which was attended by over 60 people, 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 Liverpool and the surrounding area

Panel

Jenny Stewart, Liverpool and Sefton Chamber of Commerce
Michael Keating, Centre on Constitutional Change
Richard Gillespie, Europe and the World Centre
Erika Harris (Chair)
