SUMMARY:Get Set To Sort The System!
DESCRIPTION:Sort The System – The Lobby for Equal Votes – will bring hundreds of people to Westminster on 24 May to demand that our MPs back a change in the voting system – so that everyone has a vote that counts equally. \nTo prepare for that\, join us on Zoom for a virtual rally on the evening of 18 April to find out why Sort The System is going to be our biggest opportunity yet to make the case for Proportional Representation. \nHear from senior politicians like Stephen Kinnock\, Tommy Shepherd and Zack Polanski\, and other speakers about why mass lobbies like Sort The System are important – and why now is the time! Together\, they’ll be able to answer any questions you may have about Sort The System and provide advice on how to engage MPs of all parties in a conversation about electoral reform.

SUMMARY:Citizens and the Constitution: education and engagement
DESCRIPTION:Do citizens understand – or even care about – how the UK constitution works and the role it plays in making government work for them? If they don’t\, then what can be done to ensure that the constitution and constitutional change has public support and legitimacy? \nIn this event\, we will explore the current state of public understanding of – and interest in – constitutional issues. We will look at good practice for citizen engagement. And we will consider what can be done to cultivate an engaged and empowered citizenry for the future. This event is part of the IfG and Bennett Institute Review of the UK Constitution. \nTo explore these questions\, we have assembled an expert panel including: \nCatherine McKinnell MP\, Chair of the Petitions Committee\nLiz Moorse\, Chief Executive of the Association for Citizenship Teaching\nAlan Renwick\, Professor of Democratic Politics at University College London and Deputy Director of UCL’s Constitution Unit\nTatton Spiller\, Founder of Simple Politics\nThe event will be chaired by Rebecca McKee\, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Government. \nThis is a hybrid event; follow the link to the event website to find links to register either for in-person or online attendance.

SUMMARY:How do we get better MPs?
DESCRIPTION:Nearly everyone agrees that our MPs are not up to scratch. But the path to improving the quality of our legislators is unclear.

Speaking at the event will be: \nTom Brake\, Director of Unlock Democracy\nTina Bhartwas\, Labour and Co-Operative Councillor for Letchworth North\nJosiah Mortimer\, Chief Reporter at Byline Times\nHarpreet Uppal\, Labour’s Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for Huddersfield\nThe event will be chaired by Louise Houghton\, Director of the Bylines Network.

SUMMARY:Does Brexit mean less cultural diversity and weaker creative industries?
DESCRIPTION:Before Brexit and Covid\, our creative industries contributed over 4% to GDP and over £100 billion to the economy. They were in surplus with the EU and the rest of world. However\, they lost 31% of their turnover in 2020. \nNow\, because the UK has decided not to rejoin the EU Creative Europe programme and refuses freedom of movement\, the end of Brexit transition threatens to destroy touring\, performance\, partnership and exchange possibilities with our European neighbours. The government seems to want to banish Europe as a special locus for cooperation/partnership and cultural influence. Why have organisations like the Creative Industries Federation made so little fuss? \nBrexit has meant that our film industry\, which exported more than any other EU country to the rest of the European continent\, has lost access to the EU MEDIA programme – an integral part of the Creative Europe programme. \nWhere is the lobby to re-join this valuable programme? Are our artists\, performers and film makers afraid of repercussions? During 2020\, arts and cultural networks were told that the government would appreciate more congratulations for the little it was doing for the sector. Has this had a chilling effect on our ability to campaign to re-join Creative Europe? \nA Creator’s Council exists to give voice to creators’ interests\, from actors through to fine artists\, but government doesn’t appear to be listening.

DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE: THIS EVENT IS FREE\, AND YOU CAN ATTEND EITHER IN PERSON OR ONLINE. More details and Eventbrite ticket links are on the event page \nThere is a widespread view among economists that Brexit has had a substantial negative impact on the UK economy.

SUMMARY:Q and A WITH PATIENCE WHEATCROFT AND DOMINIC GRIEVE
DESCRIPTION:The choice of new Chair for EMUK is an opportunity to set the direction of the European Movement\, and so this is a very important election.\nWhat sort of Chair do we want and what do we want this Chair to achieve? What are the key aspects to this role? \nYou may still be undecided\, may have further questions not covered in the hustings or may want further details to help you decide. Patience is more than keen to engage with the members and of course with the organisation itself. This will be a good opportunity for her to meet members\, and for members to learn about her in a more relaxed atmosphere than the hustings.

SUMMARY:Future UK-EU Relations – is there any hope?
DESCRIPTION:A virtual meeting including Q&A with David Henig and Alex Andreou\, discussing the latest developments in our relations with our EU neighbours. . \nOnce again Brexit is at the forefront of public debate. Does the Windsor Protocol mean the Tories have ‘got Brexit done’ or is it a first tentative step towards undoing it? What can we make of the recent cross-party summit allegedly designed to “make Brexit work“? What about the chaotic Retained EU Law Bill\, a rolling juggernaut which the current PM is too weak to stop? \nAgainst all the uncertainty\, opinion polls are starting to show a significant majority not only regretting Brexit but also favouring the principle of rejoining. Yet politicians on both sides lag behind public opinion. Where is a possible landing point to solve the interminable problems that Brexit has caused\, given that politicians on both sides have ruled out rejoining the Single Market\, at least for the time being? Is there room for any hope? \nWe are pleased to welcome two expert speakers from different but complementary backgrounds\, who will most certainly give us a lot to think about\, and are happy to answer questions from the audience Speaker profiles are on the event page.

SUMMARY:The Effects of Brexit on Women in the United Kingdom
DESCRIPTION:Much has been discussed about the wide-ranging consequences of the UK’s departure from the European Union\, especially in terms of the economy and mobility. However\, very little has been said about the social consequences particularly for women and their status in society and in the employment market. This topic is now being widely discussed in view of the government’s determination to push through as quickly as possible the Retained EU Law bill which will remove the legislation still in force from the period when Britain was a member of the EU\, much of which refers to social issues. \nThe Anglo-German Society\, Dortmund \, in association with Leeds For Europe\, would like to invite you to a Zoom talk by Ms Amanda Nanhoo-Robinson\, an experienced British barrister\, who will give an overview of the situation of women in Britain today and how the REUL Bill would affect their status in British society in the future. There will also be ample time for questions. To attend the event\, please join via the Zoom link below at the stated time\, using the Meeting ID 831 8848 5587 and the Passcode 646441

SUMMARY:Katy Hayward: Why the Northern Ireland Protocol is a Great British concern (and not for the reasons you think)
DESCRIPTION:Katy Hayward\, Professor of Political Sociology\, Queen’s University Belfast will discuss the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland that was signed as part of the UK-EU withdrawal Agreement in 2019 and was intended to resolve the particular difficulties for Northern Ireland arising from Brexit. But instead of clearing Northern Ireland from the UK and EU’s post-Brexit radars\, the debate around the Protocol has been central to tensions between them ever since. Katy will look at the Protocol from a slightly different perspective\, drawing on close monitoring of the Protocol’s development and implementation. She will show why the Protocol should be a concern to the public in Great Britain because of what it seeks to protect\, because of the way it has been handled\, and because what happens to it in future – for good or ill – will have implications for the whole of the United Kingdom.

SUMMARY:Brexit Polling: Beyond the Numbers
DESCRIPTION:Over the course of 2022\, opinion polls have recorded a steady increase in anti-brexit sentiment. But the numbers for and against vary according to the wording of the question\, and the polls require interpretation. This webinar brings together three experts to discuss how to interpret the polling data\, and the implications for pro-EU campaigning. \nRichard Bentall is a professor of clinical psychology\, who will explain the psychology behind the response to different polling questions (Brexit going badly; Brexit wrong; greater alignment; rejoin EU). \nPeter Kellner\, who is past president of YouGov\, will consider the implications of recent polling for Labour party policy\, and how to bring them to bear on the party leadership. \nFlo Hutchings\, Political Director at Best for Britain\, will explain the novel technique of MRP polling and how it might be applied to EU-related issues to inform the strategies of local campaigns groups.

SUMMARY:Retained EU Law Bill webinar
DESCRIPTION:Campaigners including Caroline Lucas MP and Mhairi Snowden from Human Rights Consortium Scotland will discuss the risks of the Retained EU Law Bill\, and the best ways to campaign against it. \nIn the House of Commons last week\, MPs voted against amendments to delay the Retained EU Law Bill. This means that\, as it stands\, the Retained EU Law Bill will come into effect on December 31st\, 2023\, jeopardising the standards that keep us safe. \nThis webinar is the opportunity to ask questions on ways the bill could directly impact your area. This could include workers’ rights\, environmental standards and food safety.
