SUMMARY:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED Freedom of Movement: the Key to Rejoin - A toolkit for pro-EU campaigners  THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED \nFreedom of movement of people (along with free movement of goods\, services\, and capital)\, is a fundamental principle of the EU Single Market. There can be no return to the Single Market or the EU without FoM.  \nOpposition to FoM is based on a mistaken belief that FoM means uncontrolled immigration. The public is not well informed on this issue\, a factor which greatly assisted the leave campaign. People are now becoming more aware that ending FoM affects their own and their families’ choices\, as well as undermining the UK economy\, impacting the workforce in key industries\, impeding business travel and decimating the arts. FoM is strongly supported by the public in all EU member states. \nThe aim of this webinar is to equip pro-EU activists for a campaign to restore FoM\, and so open the door to Single Market and EU membership.  \nThe webinar will provide the basis for a crib sheet for FoM campaigners.  \nChair: Richard Kilpatrick (Campaign Manager\, European Movement) \nMichaela Benson (Professor in Public Sociology\, Lancaster University): Debunking FoM myths \nRichard Bentall (Professor of Clinical Psychology\, Sheffield University) : A positive narrative on FoM \nMark English (Policy and Media Advisor\, European Movement) : Strategy and tactics for a campaign to restore FoM \nMike Galsworthy (Chair\, European Movement) : On the timing of a campaign to restore FoM

SUMMARY:How Do We Move On From Brexit?
DESCRIPTION:It has been three years since the United Kingdom left the European Union – and over seven since it voted to do so. The UK/EU relationship remains a subject of bitter debate\, with ‘leave’ and ‘remain’ identities persisting to this day. The 2024 general election will be the first post-Brexit election – but no major political party is fully acknowledging the negative impact of our exit from the EU. Will a new government mend relations with the EU or simply continue with the current chaos? \nThe Guardian’s special correspondent Heather Stewart will be joined by Guardian columnists Rafael Behr and Polly Toynbee\, and Anand Menon\, director of the UK In A Changing Europe and Professor of European Politics & Foreign Affairs at King’s College London\, to dissect the real legacy of Brexit. What needs to happen for the UK to finally move on? They will also be answering your questions in this livestreamed event.

SUMMARY:Expansion of the EU: Opportunity or threat?
DESCRIPTION:A formal decision to open EU membership negotiations with Ukraine and Moldova is due in December with other countries set to follow\, potentially taking the bloc from an already unwieldy club of 27 to more than 35. \nOur panel\, including political scientists Ivan Krastev and Nathalie Tocci\, German MEP Viola von Cramon and chaired by the Guardian’s Europe correspondent Jon Henley\, will explore how much the EU will need to transform internally if it is to function as a group of 35. How could the union use this opportunity to become strategically independent in a menacing new world order? And what might be the consequences if it fails?
