  • Exploding the Myths of Leaving the Customs Union
    Exploding the myths of leaving the Customs Union A joint publication from the European Research Group and Global Britain Fact – NOT Friction Exploding the myths of leaving the Customs Union A joint publication from the European Research Group and Global Britain C O N T E N T S Foreword 3 Executive Summary 4 Introduction 6 Myths surrounding a UK-EU free trade deal 9 Myths surrounding ‘No Deal’ – or trading on WTO terms 20 About the publishers 23 20th November 2018 Cover picture: The Port of Southampton, Diego Torres 2 FOREWORD By Simon Boyd FinstD, Managing Director of Reid Steel It is often said that when the UK leaves the EU Single Market and its Customs Union that it will be far harder to trade whether it's import or export – that frictionless trade will become difficult with delays, obstacles and costs. From my own experience I can say the reverse is true. In my experience trading with our European friends is infinitely more difficult than it is to trade with other countries outside the EU. It has, for instance, been easier for us to export to Mongolia than to France, despite the fact we were founded there in 1919. The reasons for this are obvious, the EU is bureaucratic by its very nature and its Customs Union is a fortress designed to protect producers inside it rather than encourage open free trade where everyone can benefit. But we are not and never have been protected by this protectionist regime. Instead we have seen the steady ebb of manufacturing move to other areas of the EU – and even to areas beyond – as a result of our membership.

  • The Longer-Term Outlook Will Remain Tricky for UK-EU Relations
    UK/EU/TRADE The longer-term outlook will remain tricky for UK-EU 24 Dec 2020 12:52 EST Mujtaba Rahman relations Managing Director, Europe +44 (0) 207.553.9823 [email protected] Having reached a deal, both the UK and EU are now involved in a serious “spin” operation to sell it to their respective audiences; this matters little, as the deal is guaranteed to be ratified by both sides. The deal will make it easier for the UK and EU to work together on the world stage, on issues such as climate change, while also cementing Boris Johnson’s relationship with US President-elect, Joe Biden. However, we are sceptical it will provide a platform for closer economic ties; the Government will now be keen to advance its “divergence agenda”, and the direction of both Tory and Labour party politics suggest closer links with Europe will remain unlikely—even over the medium to longer term. Boris Johnson went back to the basics of the 2016 EU referendum as he began the task of selling today’s EU trade deal to Eurosceptic Conservative MPs and the public. At a Downing Street press conference, he acknowledged the UK had made concessions, but claimed the five and a half year transition period for EU access to UK fishing was closer to the UK’s three-year opening bid and the EU’s 14 years (in fact, the EU asked for 10 years). The UK will eventually keep two thirds of the fish in its waters. But Johnson had raised greater expectations among UK fishing communities and this could prove his hardest sell.

  • ACCEA Personal Statements
    ACCEA BRONZE AWARD 2016 Name: PAUL AVEYARD GMC/GDC Number: 3332407 Speciality: ACADEMIC GP My research showed for the first time that primary care teams were ineffective at supporting weight loss, but referral to commercial weight management services was effective and cheaper. This research is cited in NICE guidelines and informed Department of Health guidance, leading to a doubling of referral to commercial providers and decline in primary care treatment. I trained GPs to deliver a 30-second intervention to promote these referrals and showed that screening for obesity is popular with patients, easy for GPs to deliver, and led to 2.5kg of weight loss. My research created a new approach to GP brief interventions to motivate smoking cessation. The national online training video has been used by 95,000 clinicians. My subsequent work with the Department of Health changed national guidelines, increasing referrals by 39%. My research showed that smoking reduction creates lasting cessation and influenced NICE guidelines. I was the GP member of the guideline group and launched the guidance at the NICE press conference, making England the first country in the world to implement a harm reduction strategy. I am one of four editors of the Cochrane Tobacco Addiction Group and our reviews are cited four times more than the Cochrane average. Our work is cited in UK and many other countries' national guidelines.

  • The Conservatives and Europe, 1997–2001 the Conservatives and Europe, 1997–2001
    8 Philip Lynch The Conservatives and Europe, 1997–2001 The Conservatives and Europe, 1997–2001 Philip Lynch As Conservatives reflected on the 1997 general election, they could agree that the issue of Britain’s relationship with the European Union (EU) was a significant factor in their defeat. But they disagreed over how and why ‘Europe’ had contributed to the party’s demise. Euro-sceptics blamed John Major’s European policy. For Euro-sceptics, Major had accepted develop- ments in the European Union that ran counter to the Thatcherite defence of the nation state and promotion of the free market by signing the Maastricht Treaty. This opened a schism in the Conservative Party that Major exacer- bated by paying insufficient attention to the growth of Euro-sceptic sentiment. Membership of the Exchange Rate Mechanism (ERM) prolonged recession and undermined the party’s reputation for economic competence. Finally, Euro-sceptics argued that Major’s unwillingness to rule out British entry into the single currency for at least the next Parliament left the party unable to capitalise on the Euro-scepticism that prevailed in the electorate. Pro-Europeans and Major loyalists saw things differently. They believed that Major had acted in the national interest at Maastricht by signing a Treaty that allowed Britain to influence the development of Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) without being bound to join it. Pro-Europeans noted that Thatcher had agreed to an equivalent, if not greater, loss of sovereignty by signing the Single European Act. They believed that much of the party could and should have united around Major’s ‘wait and see’ policy on EMU entry.

  • Analyzing the Post-Brexit Conservative Party's Populist Status Quo1 Winn, Jacob2
    Brexit: A Fluke or the Future of British Conservatism? 119 BREXIT: A FLUKE OR THE FUTURE OF BRITISH CONSERVATISM? Analyzing the Post-Brexit Conservative Party's Populist Status Quo1 Winn, Jacob2 ABSTRacT The Brexit vote — the British people’s vote to leave the European Union in 2016 — represents the outcome of a successful populist movement. More recently, the Conservative Party’s staggering 2019 electoral success demonstrated that the populist “Get Brexit Done” message remains popular among both traditional Conservatives and broad swaths of the working class in former Labour Party strongholds. This study aims to explain the Conservative Party’s marked change rhetoric and policy, as well as factional shifts within the halls of Westminster, in response to the ongoing Brexit negotiations. While some scholars look at the supply- side causes of populism (elites and political parties) and others look at the demand- side causes (the voters), this study applies a third school of thought that examines the relationship between supply and demand by analyzing a series of interviews with Conservative Party staff as well as public opinion polling. In doing so, the study concludes that there has been a deep, reciprocal, and simultaneous onset of populist Euroscepticism within both the Conservative Party and the working class 1 This work is licensed under CC BY 4.0.

  • The Brexit Effect How Government Has Changed Since the EU Referendum
    The Brexit Effect How government has changed since the EU referendum Lewis Lloyd About this report Implementing the result of the 2016 EU referendum has proven an unprecedented test for the UK Government – one that it has yet to pass. Brexit has challenged the status quo, upending conventions and inviting us to rethink how government, and politics more broadly, work in the UK. On the day the UK was originally scheduled to leave the EU, this report assesses the impact on six areas that have been particularly subject to the “Brexit Effect”: ministers, the civil service, public bodies, money, devolution, and Parliament. Our Brexit work The Institute for Government has a major programme of work looking at the negotiations, the UK’s future relationship with the EU and how the UK is governed after Brexit.

  • Andrew Marr Show 29Th September 2019 Angela Rayner Shadow Education Secretary
    1 ANGELA RAYNER ANDREW MARR SHOW 29TH SEPTEMBER 2019 ANGELA RAYNER SHADOW EDUCATION SECRETARY AM: One of the big announcements at Labour’s conference last week was an all-out assault on Britain’s private schools. I am joined now to talk about that and much more by Labour’s shadow education secretary, Angela Rayner. Angela Rayner, before we get going on all of that, you heard the prime minister give a kind of guarded and at least partial apology for his ‘humbug’ comment in the House of Commons. What’s your response? AR: Well, I’m really disappointed with the prime minister at the moment because he knows that he’s got a direct strategy to divide our country. You know, every politician at the moment wants to get a deal, wants to get through the Brexit situation we’re in, and to suggest in any way that we’re surrendering and not wanting to do the best by our country, I think is really damaging, especially as a direct strategy from Number 10. I think he should be absolutely, utterly ashamed of himself and I want to thank his colleagues, who are better than him, who have offered women parliamentarians across the board support when they’ve been getting a lot of misogynistic death threats and abuse. AM: The problem with the language, and there’s no doubt the country is badly divided and very angry, is that it’s on both sides. Brendan Cox has said – has made this point very directly – that it’s not just the Conservative side, or indeed the Leave side of the argument, it’s the other side as well.
