Political And Economic Impacts Of The British Voters

This implies that the process of Scottish independence if the referendum succeeds could eventually become very

Sir, we have been trying that for the last ten years…” When he spoke those words at the convention, he expected his audience to see that Britain hasn’t changed and doesn’t plan to change. They will do as they have done in the past. History will repeat

In recent years, it has been increasingly apparent that European Parliament election turnout is on the decline, with just 35.6% of British citizens casting their vote in 2014. This is remarkably low, especially when viewed alongside other national decisions such as the referendum for Britain to leave the European Union, which received a staggering 72.2% turnout. However, this decline was not

With diminishing control of what happens in Britain, the British people decided it was best to vacate the union. The British were dealing with the laws given by the European members who were not living and experiencing the country themselves. To provide an example of a ghastly law given to the British people, they, as part of the European Union, were only allowed to catch 20% of the fish swimming in British territorial waters. What this meant was that tens of thousands of jobs were lost and they were not able to use one of the most significant resources given to them, as Britain is surrounded by ocean. Nigel Farage, Leader of the UK Independence Party, says that his fellow Englishmen, “effectively gave away the ability to look after one of our greatest resources to a bureaucracy based in Brussels.” Because of the way the government was set up, “Not only could the voters not change anything, but the institutes themselves are incapable of reform.” With an already maimed government, the European Union was creating more problems than it was solving. The British people had enough of giving up their rights as British citizens so the European Commission could tell them how to live. Therefore, with problems like those arising from the Union and with no hope to resolve them, Britain filed for secession and pulled out of the union

The media has a lot to do with a party's image, as it is the main and

On June 23rd,2016 the results of the referendum called by David Cameron, changed the political landscape of England. David Cameron, former Prime Minister led the campaign to remain during the referendum, however he was unsuccessful and an incumbent Prime Minister. Thus he had to resign, ‘The Prime Minister resigned on Friday 24th June’. Theresa May

Throughout the history of European integration, the major UK parties have debated on all different aspects of Europe and the impacts of membership on Britain itself. From both these debates and party policies, it is clear to see that whilst there is generally a consensus over Europe, some issues have been a cause of disagreement among the major parties. In this essay I will analyse the policies and actions of the major UK parties that concern the EU and be able to conclude to what extent they agree over Europe.

Since 1973 when the British first joined the European Union their membership has been a controversial issue. When conservatives in the United Kingdom won the general election in 2015, their election manifesto promised to hold a referendum on whether or not the United Kingdom should stay or leave the European Union. The referendum also referred to as “Brexit” is scheduled to take place by the end of 2017. The United Kingdom initially joined the union to be part of the common market for the purpose of trade and to develop international relationships. The main argument for those who are pro Brexit is that being part of the European Union is too costly for the United Kingdom, that the EU has grown to large, has interfered to far into

The results of the independence referendum came out as to a total of 3,623,344 casted votes, 55.3% in favor of “No” independence, and 44.7% in favor of independence. Non-supporters of independence for Scotland are relieved that they would not have to go through the hardships in it’s economy if independent, while supporters of Scottish Independence are still fighting for the thought of having a prosperous economy and prove the UK that they could be an independent country. As for now, the country of the UK is slowly finding out who they are as the future

This report will look at the benefits and issues surrounding the UKs decision to remain as a member state of the European Union (E.U.). Along with the newly elected conservative government, came the announcement that a nationwide referendum would be held, by the end of 2017, in order to determine the British public’s stance on the issue of EU membership.

First of all there is to say that GB has 4 major parties. The conservatives, the labour party, the Scottish national party and the liberal democrat party. Let me go on by telling you about their leaders and about their plans for GB. The Conservative Party, which is lead by Theresa May is in favor of big industries. They fight for a free market without government interference and for less power for trade unions. In contrast, the Labour Party is in favor party. They want the exact opposite than the Conservatives as they are planning a state intervention in economic affairs and more power for trade unions. The next point would be the Scottish National Party. Their leader is Nicola Sturgeon and they mainly fight for Scotlands independence. The

After being confirmed as the UK’s next prime minister, Theresa May promised to make the recent Brexit a success. She also vowed to give the citizens more control over their personal lives in order to establish a better

Recent events have a significant impact on this analysis. As of the 10th of December, 2017, Theresa May has agreed to a deal that would see the UK paying 39 billion pounds and would preserve the soft border between Ireland and Northern Ireland, after a setback just days before due to dissatisfaction from DUP leader

My empirical research question: is Did the British citizens vote to exit the European Union actually represent the will of the UK's people? My choice explanation:  The UK citizens vote to exit the European Union was a shock to many. There was anticipation that the UK would remain. After the vote, many different sources suggested that the people really didn't want to exit the E.U and the voters thought that the proposal would and it didn't.

Britain withdrawing the European Union has always been an ongoing discussion, one of the many goals pursued by some British political parties, along with groups of people and individuals. Leaving the European Union is a right that every country that is part of the Treaty on the European Union has (Article 50 of the treaty), and this is what the Conservative political parties that proposed the referendum are triggering to impulse a faster withdraw from the EU; specially the new prime minister Theresa May. There had been another referendum in 1975, but it resulted in
