The Sunday Debate: Were pre-Brexit predictions correct?
from Intelligence Squared · host Intelligence Squared
This week marked the three year anniversary of Brexit, the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union. On this episode of The Sunday Debate we’re revisiting what some would call a simpler time, pre-Brexit Britain. In May 2016, a month before the referendum, Intelligence Squared staged The Great Brexit Debate. Our chair for the debate was Jonathan Freedland, Guardian columnist, author and broadcaster, and he was joined by a panel of six influential voices including Nick Clegg and Gisela Stuart. Now we’re on the other side of this once in a generation vote, were the predictions correct? Did the fears or hopes come into fruition? Learn more about your ad choices.
