Brexit Ten Years On (part 2)

麻豆社 correspondent Alex Forsyth looks at what impact the decision to leave the European Union has had on various aspects of public and political life.

It is 10 years since the UK voted to leave the European Union in the Brexit referendum. In this two-part series, Alex Forsyth, a 麻豆社 correspondent who鈥檚 covered Brexit from both Brussels and Westminster, looks at what impact the decision to leave the EU has had on various aspects of public and political life, both within Britain and beyond.

In this second episode, Alex and guests discuss how leaving the EU impacted UK regulation, science and academia, and fishing and farming, and consider how Brexit has impacted the EU and British internal politics ten years on. Did Brexit allow the UK to free itself from the 鈥榖urdensome bureaucracy鈥� of the EU and innovate independently, or leave it out of the loop? Did UK fishers and farmers get a better deal post Brexit? Were there fears the UK鈥檚 departure would trigger a domino effect amongst other European nations? And has Brexit ultimately made UK politics more European?
