British citizens’ knowledge of the policies and institutions of the European Union is notoriously shaky. Not only does this prevent the UK from having a meaningful national debate on Europe, it also restricts politicians’ ability to make policy based on a genuine engagement with public opinion.

This report is intended to begin a serious debate about Britain’s future relationship with Europe. Emily Robinson tracks the developing views of British citizens as they participate in deliberative panels. Her findings provide an important insight into informed public opinion on the current and future governance of the EU.
