The contradictory political philosophy of Brexit

Andrew Glencross

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article

Abstract

Brexit rests on a profound contradiction, argues Andrew Glencross. Voters rejected government advice to stay in the European Union, but rely on the same parliamentary majority to craft a better alternative. A general election – or second referendum – is likely before the UK leaves the EU.
