EU referendum

Never Gonna Give EU Up

by Hannah Stevenson

EVERY time that I think I’m over Brexit, I realise that I’m really, *really* not. It’s been over two years: I’m still deeply angry. I’m angry that politicians sold false promises for their own political gain (and that the British people fell for them), I’m angry that Brexit deal negotiations have devolved into utter shambles. […]

Racist backlash hits Exeter following EU referendum

by Natasa Christofidou

There have been several complaints from University of Exeter students and staff members regarding racially motivated verbal abuse, following the EU referendum vote favouring Brexit. When the University’s deputy vice-chancellor, Professor Nick Talbot was questioned on one incident, he referred to it as “terrible, reprehensible, and awful.” However, professor Talbot believes that opinions expressed by the abusers […]

#TheUKDecides: How should young people feel about the referendum result?

by Lewis Keen

On Friday 24 June, many of us woke up to a nation that we did not know. This new nation had decided to turn its back on a world that we hold dear and truly believe in. It appears as though the baby boomers wanted one last hurrah at the expense of our future. One anonymous […]

TheUKDecides: Brexit’s silver lining

by Isabelle Rogerson

The campaigns were fought hard, with casualties on both sides (and although this refers to political casualties, the real-life tragedy of Jo Cox and her message of unity should not be forgotten). Landmarks of the Brexit battle range from the sinister to the downright surreal, from Nigel Farage’s controversial Nazi-esque immigration poster to a flotilla […]

Exeter ‘Stands Together’ following EU referendum result

by Fiona Potigny

Exeter residents will ‘stand together’ in a colourful celebration of the European community this afternoon, in the aftermath of the EU Referendum result. Organised by the University’s own Lecturer in Hispanic Studies Dr Juan Garcia-Precedo, the event promises to provide a platform for speakers and debate, welcoming both Leave and Remain voters. He commented: “We all feel […]

#TheUKDecides: The fragments of Brexit – an analysis of the referendum

by Jac Lewis

It is easily assumed by the distinct binary logic of this result that Britain is fundamentally divided between two rival camps. One is slightly larger but nonetheless it is plausible that a public, a parliament and a nation has been effectively divided into two sides by the UK’s decision for Brexit by a slim four […]

#TheUKDecides: Referendums in the UK – power to the people?

by Kate Jones

There is no doubt that it will be a historic day. Voter registration is closed, the UK is going to the polls and it is clear that today, the UK voting population’s decision on whether or not to leave the European Union will, either way, have a massive impact on the future of the country. One […]

#TheUKDecides: A non-UK perspective on the referendum

by Natasa Christofidou

The effectiveness of the European Union (EU) has been a politically-controversial topic ever since the formation of the European Economic Community (EEC) in 1958. Initially, there was a desire for economic integration between member states that were geographically located within Europe. However, as the membership of the EEC expanded, so did its agenda. Ultimately, the […]

#TheUKDecides: “What Europe offers is a sclerosis” – an interview with Dr Liam Fox MP

by Bea Fones

Far from having faded into obscurity since the 2011 security scandal which led to his resignation from the post of Secretary of State for Defence, Dr Liam Fox MP has risen once again to the limelight within the Conservative party, tipped as one of the most likely candidates to take over from David Cameron following the […]

#TheUKDecides: Why I want us to leave the EU

by Hayden Cooper

The Lexit (Left Exit) side of the EU debate has been criminally ignored. It has received almost no coverage, other than occasional attempts to invalidate or hide its existence. This truly is a shame, because there are valid reasons for leaving the European Union in this election, yet the xenophobia of the mainstream leave campaign […]
