The United Kingdom And The European Union

I have come to the conclusion that my hypothesis is valid, it would be disastrous if the UK decided to leave the EU.

The future of the United Kingdom has never been so uncertain. The British Prime Minister, David Cameron, is keeping the promise he made in 2015, to hold a referendum on whether or not the United Kingdom should remain a member of the European Union. The referendum will take hold on Thursday, 23rd of June of this year. But the results of the last opinion poll held on April 12th to 14th, show, that the British public is fairly evenly split, as 40% want to remain in the European Union and 39% want to leave. The members of the United Kingdom Independence party and other British keen to leave the Union, argue that the UK and its policy makers are being held back and manipulated by the EU, who make too many rules for business, immigration laws and charges billions of pounds a year in membership fees for little in return and undermining the British interests. However, the UK’s investment in the membership and acceptance of rules of the EU, gives the UK far more benefits by allowing it to grow academically, economically and ensures safety for all its citizens and is therefore better off staying a member of this peacemaking Union.

A vote to leave the EU would start a long and complicated process that would result in a fundamental change in the UK's relationship with other members of the EU. There are pros and cons should BREXIT were to follow through.

The British voters have spoken on the June 23 referendum that they want their country out of the European Union. The leave side has prevailed with 52 percent voters supporting Brexit, or Britain 's exit, while the remain side getting 48 percent. Some of the political and economic impacts have been already felt in the United Kingdom and registered in Europe and across the world. The others will come as political and economic uncertainties continue.

Firstly, it must be established exactly why withdrawing from the EU would be a poor decision for the UK to make. This will be accomplished by critically assessing the main arguments for withdrawal in order to remove the gild that the public’s misinformed perception has coated these arguments in, which has led to recent polls finding that a “Vote today would see Britain exiting [the] EU” (Orb International, 2014, cited in Shipman, 2014).

The British has officially voted to move away from the EU. The market is in crisis after the revelation that the united kingdom is a broken nation.

The UK people decide to leave the EU (British exit, or Brexit) through a referendum on June 23, 2016. The stock market reacts negatively to the results of this Brexit referendum. The value of the pound immediately drops. The reasons behind this referendum are that during the EU membership, the citizens of the United Kingdom feel that the sovereignty of the state is not enforced, the issue of immigration and the amount of contribution to the EU budget which is not comparable to that returned by the British.

Before stating a bias, I will have to discuss what will happen to the British if they remain with the EU.

Britain not only has a special relationship with the United States of America (USA), but also has a different kind of special relationship with Europe. The relationship is often described as ‘reluctant’ and ‘awkward’ because Britain is member of the European Union (EU), but has a number of exemptions, for example Britain is not part of eurozone or the Schengen area. Today, the debate is if there are more benefits or disadvantages to Britain’s membership in the EU; there is no clear answer. However, Britain’s current involvement and position is the best option; they can utilize trade benefits, but are not mandated to take part in eurozone.

Winston Churchill called for the concept of a “kind of United States of Europe”, and with an ever-closer European Union both with tenacious economic and political ties, his call is materialising by the day. Though favoured by Churchill, the high European migrant levels and the erosion of Britain’s sovereignty has led to the questioning of the so-called ‘European super-state’. Britain voting ‘out’ on the 23rd. June would result in ‘Brexit’ and subsequently an end to free trade with its European counterparts. This would release her from the shackles of tariffs and quotas that are present for non-EU trade, leading to potential trade deals with Eastern countries such as China. Further to ones discussion with Britain being EUs second largest

The United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union to curb the large influx of immigration and ultimately create a more pure form of sovereignty.

The decision by the United Kingdom to leave the European Union this last June will surely be a pivotal moment in political history. It was both a rejection of the EU and in some ways the broader global community. The result of this referendum seems to be striking for two particular reasons. First, few observers of politics – casual and professionals alike – did not seriously anticipate the success of the leave campaign. While only anecdotal, my colleagues and I were in the United Kingdom about a week in advance of the vote, and the consensus seemed to be that there would be a remain victory – albeit small. Late into the early morning hours of June 24th we realized that the conventional wisdom was no longer conventional. Secondly, it was unexpected because of the insidiousness of exclusionary and sometimes outright racist rhetoric that the Leave campaign espoused. That is not to say that all those who supported the leave campaign are racists – but there is an undeniable motivation of xenophobia also behind some actors regarding the desire to turn inwards.

Since the 2016 vote, the European Union and the United Kingdom has consistently quarrelled whether UK’s exit from the union will be “hard” or “soft.” As many political scientists have predicted, this leave will not be easy for either party. Not only will the European Union will lose the economic powerhouse the UK is, but the UK will lose the multitude of benefits, regarding trade, finance, free movement of people, etc., the EU membership affords. This loss poses the need to represent the interest of the UK and the EU. Although the state’s “soft” exit from the union could motivate other members to follow Britain, a more challenging leave could jeopardize the future of the European Union. It is in the best interest of both sides to make this

The Brexit referendum has been a very controversial topic for the past 6 months. The referendum option surfaced due to the changes happening in the European Union as an organization. The European Union (EU), formerly known as the European Coal and Steel Communities (ECSC), is originally created under the vision of creating a trading agreement which ease the transaction between the members. However, the EU now not only creates a single-market system to ease the trading between members, but also holds power over the member’s government, parliament, and court. Before the crisis in 2008 which is caused by EU’s single-market currency, the Euro, the political impact caused by EU’s membership

To understand the existence of Brexit in the first place, we need to clarify the economic background and position of the
