This event hosted by UK think tank the Policy Institute marks 10 years since the EU referendum.

Join UK in a Changing Europe, the Policy Insititute and Ipsos as we mark 10 years since the EU referendum.

This June marks a decade since the people of the UK cast their votes in the EU referendum.

From the referendum to the result to the reset and now to talk of rejoin, UK in a Changing Europe, the Policy Institute at King’s College London and Ipsos have meticulously followed Brexit, what the public make of it, and its impact on the UK as it has – and continues to – evolve. 10 years on, it’s time to take stock of it all.

Ahead of the anniversary of the vote, we are bringing together some UK in a Changing Europe regulars alongside leading polling experts to reflect on Brexit’s impact on the UK public and the nation’s politics over the past decade and explore how the UK-EU relationship could develop in future.

Join us as we mark one of the most decisive and divisive moments in recent British political history and ask, aided by some new and exclusive polling with Ipsos, what’s next for UK-EU relations.
