Today's episode in our occasional series looking at significant political anniversaries explores the causes and consequences of the Brexit Referendum, which took place 10 years ago this week. David talks to historian Robert Saunders about why the referendum was called, how the vote was won and how it was lost, and what made it such a difficult decision to implement. Did the referendum change who we were or did it reveal who we are? And is it too soon to know what it all meant? Out tomorrow on PPF+: part two of this conversation in which David and Robert explore how we got from there to here, looking at the twists and turns of British politics over the last ten years and asking whether the state of British politics today is a consequence of what happened in June 2016.

Ten years — and six prime ministers — ago Britain was on the brink of voting to leave the European Union. Host Patrick Baker was in his first job as a TV news producer during the referendum campaign. A decade on, he's gone back to the people who lived through its biggest moments to find out what was really happening behind the scenes, and how those events changed British politics forever. Matthew Elliott, chief executive of Vote Leave, recounts the brutal battle with rival group Leave.EU to become the official Brexit campaign, and how his colleague Dominic Cummings used new techniques to persuade swing voters to vote for Brexit. Kate Fall, David Cameron's then deputy chief of staff, remembers sitting in the front row when Barack Obama delivered his infamous “back of the queue” warning — and provides her theory on whether Downing Street planted the phrase. Broadcaster Rachel Johnson relives the chaos of boarding a boat on the Thames with Bob Geldof to confront a flotilla of pro-Brexit fishermen, before the rockstar began lambasting Nigel Farage. And former Labour MP Gisela Stuart recalls what it was like to participate in the BBC's live TV debate at Wembley, and remembers what it was like at the Vote Leave headquarters on the morning of Brexit.

US-Präsident mit gravierenden Geschichts- und GedächtnislückenEin Standpunkt von Wolfgang Effenberger.US-Präsident Donald Trump übte am 27. Februar 2025 erneut scharfe Kritik an der Europäischen Union und drohte mit neuen Zöllen von 25 Prozent auf Importe aus der EU an, die „für Autos und alle anderen Dinge“ gelten sollen. (1) Trump warf den Europäern vor, die USA auszunutzen, und behauptete sogar,die EU sei gegründet worden, „um die USA über den Tisch zu ziehen“.(2)Dies sei "der Zweck" der EU. (3) Die EU-Kommission reagierte prompt auf diese neuen Drohungen und kündigte an, dass Europa "sofort und entschlossen" reagieren werde. (4)Trumps Behauptung stellt die Entstehungsgeschichte der EU auf den Kopf. Provokation oder tatsächliche Unwissenheit? Trumps Parteifreund, der Republikaner und ehemalige Vizefinanzminister von Präsident Ronald Reagan, Paul Craig Roberts, versprach sich am 24. Juni 2016 – direkt nach dem BREXIT-Referendum –„ein Auseinanderbrechen der EU und der NATO und damit die Vermeidung des Dritten Weltkriegs“. (5)In EU und NATO sieht Roberts ebenso wie Trump, böse Institutionen, (6) jedoch von einem diametralen Ansatz her:„Diese beiden Institutionen sind Mechanismen, die von Washington geschaffen wurden, um die Souveränität der europäischen Völker zu zerstören. Diese beiden Institutionen geben Washington die Kontrolle über die westliche Welt und dienen sowohl als Deckmantel als auch als Ermöglicher für Washingtons Aggressionen. Ohne die EU und die NATO könnte Washington Europa und das Vereinigte Königreich nicht in einen Konflikt mit Russland zwingen, und Washington hätte in 15 Jahren nicht sieben muslimische Länder zerstören können, ohne als verhasste Kriegsverbrecherregierung isoliert zu werden, deren Mitglieder nicht ins Ausland reisen könnten, ohne verhaftet und vor Gericht gestellt zu werden.“ (7)Marksteine nach 1945 auf dem Weg in die heutige KatastropheNach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg galt es dann, Europa für den Krieg gegen die Sowjetunion fit zu machen.Am 15. Mai 1947 verkündete US-Präsident Harry S. Truman seine Doktrin zur Eindämmung der weiteren Ausdehnung der Sowjetunion.Am 6. Juni 1947 folgte der Marshallplan. Er hatte das Ziel, Westeuropa gegen den Ostblock zu stärken und der noch vom Krieg überhitzten amerikanischen Wirtschaft Absatzmärkte zu öffnen. (8)Am 26. Juli 1947 wurde der „National Security Act" für die militärische Durchdringung der Welt verabschiedet, eines der wichtigsten Gesetze der US-amerikanischen Nachkriegsgeschichte. Er ist bis heute die Grundlage weltweiter amerikanischer Militärmacht.Alle drei Ereignisse sind auf ein Ziel ausgerichtet: Die Zerstörung der SowjetunionDie heutige EU geht auf das „American Committee for European Unit" zurück.Am 23. April 1948 fand in New York ein erstes Treffen mit dem Ziel der Gründung des "American Committee for European Unit" (ACUE) statt.Dieses Komitee zur Unterstützung eines "freien und vereinigten Europa" war mit 17 Männern und zwei Frauen hochkarätig besetzt: der Diplomat William C.

Entrepreneur Arron Banks shot to prominence during and after the UK's 2016 Brexit Referendum, where financial support for ‘Leave' made him the country's largest-ever political donor. Later that year, Banks and political ally Nigel Farage were Donald Trump's first foreign visitors after the returned US President's first shock victory. In this fascinating interview with BizNews editor Alec Hogg, Banks explains why South Africa is key in the Trump Administration's strategy to address global political imbalances, cautioning about likely consequences from the ANC's doubling down in its tug of the Eagle's tail feathers. He also shares his SA connections; the spectacular growth of Farage's Reform Party (now leading UK polls); and a long-running R150m fraud case against the South African miner who hosted Ramaphosa at the RWC.

Seit etwas über 10 Jahren nehmen Trollfarmen strategisch Einfluss auf internationale, nationale und gesellschaftliche Prozesse wie die Annexion der Krim, die US-Präsidentschaftswahl 2016 und das Brexit Referendum. Mittels gezielter Online Kampagnen spielen sie eine signifikante Rolle bei der Beeinflussung der öffentlichen Meinung oder der Verstärkung bestimmter politischer Narrative. Während Social Media Plattformen wie Twitter, Facebook oder TicToc wenig Handlungsbedarf sehen (wollen) können Datenanalysten wie das niederländische Forschungsinstitut Trollrensics ebenso regelmäßige wie wirkmächtige Einflussnahmen nachweisen. Beispielsweise als bei der letzten Europa Wahl offenbar russische Trollarmeen die Stimmung zu Gunsten von beispielsweise AFD und BSW beeinflussten. Ein Gespräch mit Robert van der Noordaa und Richard Odekerken über die Entstehung von Trollrensics, die Mechanismen von Desinformationskampagnen, Yevgeny Prigorzhin und die Internet Research Agency, mithilfe welcher Mustererkennung Fake Profile identifiziert werden können und warum die Menschen auf Social Media längst in der Minderheit sind. [ENGLISH VERSION]  For just over 10 years, troll farms have been strategically influencing international, national and social processes such as the annexation of Crimea, the 2016 US presidential election and the Brexit referendum. Using targeted online campaigns, they play a significant role in influencing public opinion or reinforcing certain political narratives. While social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook or TicToc (want to) see little need for action, data analysts such as the Dutch research institute Trollrensics can prove that they exert influence just as regularly as they do effectively. For example, when Russian troll armies apparently influenced public opinion in favour of the AFD and BSW in the last European elections. A conversation with Robert van der Noordaa and Richard Odekerken about the origins of Trollrensics, the mechanisms of disinformation campaigns, Yevgeny Prigorzhin and the Internet Research Agency, how pattern recognition can be used to identify fake profiles and why people have long been in the minority on social media.

Dr. Anamaria Dutceac Segesten, Associate Professor in Strategic Communication at Lund University, joins a discussion of cross-cutting expression and its implications for digital campaigning on Facebook. On the theory side, we discuss concepts of online self-expression and cross-pressures. We also discuss how political ideology can be inferred from Facebook reactions such as 'likes' and 'loves'. Finally, we discuss what topic models of the Brexit debate around Facebook can reveal about how and what Facebook users discussed around the referendum. Links to the paper and supplementary material: Reconceptualizing Cross-Cutting Political Expression on Social Media: A Case Study of Facebook Comments During the 2016 Brexit Referendum (2023)Supplementary Material

Landslide... the whole Tory government has been a shambles since Cameron dropped the ball with the Brexit Referendum. Ever since, seeds of division have been sown amongst the 'proletariat' of this once 'shining beacon to the rest of Europe' if it ever had that tile to hold. Never forget this sordid event that took place, hounding people susceptible to the narrative that has split many apart from their families, friends, and other loved ones, as well as isolating those who need care the most, leaving them vulnerable. No accountability has been taken for a damn thing said in that Houses of Party-ment. Whilst the British people have rejected truths about themselves and have instead favoured throwing more oil on the fire, the public face the worst austerity crisis in the wake of the pandemic and botched rollouts of what appears to be a faulty vaccination program.

As I am typing up the show notes for our latest podcast, news has come in that former Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe has been assassinated during a campaign event. A sad, sinister reminder that contrary to what the soon former prime minister of the UK would have us believe, it's not all a laugh and a half. As if we needed reminding. The murder of Sir David Amess was only nine months ago,  and Jo Cox was killed just before the Brexit Referendum, in June 2016. Culture wars and wedge politics will only ever make things worse. Even The Spectator is now pushing back against the growing Trumpification of political discourse in the UK. But that was never an issue for the P.T. Barnum of British politics and his confederacy of dunces, as Sam generously labels Her Majesty's continuously thinning Government. But the times they are about to be a-changin: together with a majority of – not just the Westminster commentariat but – the great British public, the SmallDataForum punditariat on Friday rejoiced in the news that finally, FINALLY, the Shagamemnon (thanks Marina Hyde) of Downing Street, the tousled blonde cherub, Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson, announced his resignation on 7 July as leader of the UK's Conservative Party. He remains Prime Minister until a new party leader is voted on by Conservative MPs and party members. Continue reading -> https://www.smalldataforum.com/

Fast vier Jahre dauerte es, bis Großbritannien nach dem Brexit-Referendum im Juni 2016 aus der EU austrat. Dass die Verhandlungen sich so lange hinzogen, lag unter anderem an der Nordirland-Frage – denn durch den Brexit sollte nicht wieder eine harte Grenze auf der Insel entstehen. Der Kompromiss war, dass Nordirland faktisch Teil des Binnenmarkts und der Zollunion bleibt. Doch dieser Kompromiss – das Nordirland-Protokoll – wird nun von der britischen Regierung infrage gestellt. Was die Gründe dafür sind und was die EU dagegen unternimmt, bespricht Ole Pflüger mit Bettina Schulz, die für ZEIT ONLINE aus Großbritannien berichtet. Im allgemeinen Bewusstsein ist die Corona-Pandemie in Deutschland derzeit nicht sehr präsent. Doch die Omikron-Mutationen BA.4 und BA.5 breiten sich rasant in Deutschland aus – die Sieben-Tage-Inzidenz ist derzeit doppelt so hoch wie noch vor einer Woche. Kommt es also zu einer Sommerwelle? Und wie hoch wird diese? Das erklärt Linda Fischer aus dem Wissensressort von ZEIT ONLINE. Und sonst so? Die Fantastische Riesenschildkröte galt als ausgestorben – doch sie lebt.

On this edition of Parallax Views, Dulcie Everitt joins us to discuss her new book BrexLit: The Problem of Englishness in Pre- and Post-Brexit Referendum Literature (Zer0 Books; 2022). Dulcie's book delves into the idea of the sub-nationalist English identity (as opposed to British identity; English identity would be different from Welsh, Scottish, or Irish identity) in literature before and after the Brexit referendum that saw the UK leave the EU. It is important to note in this regard that England had a greater "Leave" vote than either "Scotland" or "Ireland", both of which voted "Remain", on the referendum. In this conversation we delve into the issue of what English identity is and how it is amorphous, slippery, or difficult to easily define. We delve into Englishness as an identity as it relates to both empire and post-Empire Britain. This, of course, brings us to the topic of Brexit, what it was, how it was spearheaded by figures like the Tory Party's Boris Johnson and UKIP's Nigel Farage, the formation of English nationalism as a retaliation to insurgent sub-nationalisms, the role of nostalgia in the Leave campaign and Boris Johnson's famous "Take Back Control!" line, the history of Euroscepticism on both the Right and the Left, why a second referendum is unfeasible now, xenophobia and racism in relation to Brexit, Ian McEwan's Kafka inspired take on Brexit in the form of the novel The Cockroach, as well as the more hope Autumn by Scottish author Ali Smith, Jonathan Coe's The Rotters' Club and its Brexit-influenced sequel Middle England, the dystopian Perfidious Albion by Sam Byers, the question of cosmopolitanism, and much, much more!

Indra Adnan is a psychosocial therapist, founder of The Alternative Global and author of The Politics of Waking up: Power and possibility in the fractal age.  She has been a journalist, a director of a political think tank and a community organiser. She is always an activist. Her passion is the creation of methods of connection that allow everyone to be fully themselves, to find the place from which meaning and purpose arise and to act from there.  She gave up her job at the think tank on the day the British MP Jo Cox was murdered in the run up to the 2016 Brexit Referendum, and has spent the time since then considering and creating ways to bring about the change we need to see if we're going to address the climate, ecological and cultural chaos of our time. In this conversation, we delve deep into the ways we might do things differently - how does a different kind of politics and governance work? How does it feel? What are the logistics and how might we bring it about?  On the way, we consider the creation of an alternative media system - one that brings people together instead of splitting them apart - and the ways that local citizens action networks (CANs) can join together to create a movement of movements with unstoppable momentum.  Indra's Book: https://systems-souls-society.com/insight/perspectiva-press/the-politics-of-waking-up-power-and-possibility-in-the-fractal-age/The Alternative Global: https://www.thealternative.org.ukSimon Anholt: The Good Country: https://www.goodcountry.org/simon-anholtDavid Wood: London Futurists: https://londonfuturists.com/Trust The People: https://www.trustthepeople.earthMarge Piercy: The Low Road: https://thechangeagency.org/testimonials/marge-piercy/Thrutopia: https://thrutopia.life

Title: The Weaponization of Social Media This lecture is a part of The Institute of World Politics Capitol Hill Speaker Series. About the Lecture: Ethan Burger will examine the relevance of the Russian concepts ‘Hybrid War' and ‘Cyberwarfare' as applied to Russian intervention in the 2016 Brexit Referendum and U.S. Presidential Election. This lecture will focus on the similarity of Russia's social media campaigns which used false information, fake news, and other content aimed at exploiting the fears and passions of the UK and U.S. electorates. The Kremlin did not rely on the use of social media alone to obtain favorable electoral outcomes. In both cases, Russian ties to supporters of Brexit and the Trump campaign remained largely unnoticed until after voting. Finally, Mr. Burger will explore some steps that might be taken to reduce the vulnerability of countries' citizens to foreign manipulation. About the Speaker: Ethan S. Burger, Esq., is a Washington-based international legal consultant and educator, and he is an adjunct professor at the Institute of World Politics. His areas of interest include corporate governance, transnational crime (corruption, cybercrime, and money laundering), and Russian affairs.
