On June 23rd 2016, British citizens will be asked to vote on the UK’s membership of the European Union. The aim of Remain or Leave is to cut through partisan rhetoric and the mass of competing, often contradictory information. What it offers instead is a set of five concise multimedia lectures examining the validity of pro- and anti-EU arguments in an even handed fashion. The weekly topics are:

Week 1: Sovereignty: Brussels or Westminster?

Week 2: The Single Market

Week 3: Immigration and Border Control

Week 4: Divides amongst British voters

Week 5: The Risks of Leaving or Remaining
