Citizens Jury on the EU


Robin Lustig, the veteran BBC broadcaster has been involved in a Citizens Jury exercise for the referendum, which took evidence from a range of experts across policy areas.

The result was four free podcasts you can find below, and which many will find helpful if they are still undecided.

Referendum debate on Thursday 9th June - St James West Hampstead

Come along and hear the arguments next week - and hopefully give some support to Hannah Phillips, who is leading the StrongerIn campaign in Holborn & St Pancras, and Cllr Andrew Marshall, longstanding Conservative councillor in the area.  We're most grateful to Father Andrew and his parish for facilitating this debate.

Impact of Brexit on UK real GDP - 88% of biggest poll of economist see negative impact on GDP

Just 5% of 700 economists think Brexit would lead to higher GDP, 88% think it would be negative over the next five years, and 72% think it would be negative over the next 10-20 years.  Not the kind of risk that most working people in the UK can gamble with.  Let's not sleepwalk into a DIY recession.

Out on the streets of Camden as the referendum is called

On Saturday morning as the referendum date was confirmed as June 23, we had two teams out in Englands Lane, Belsize and in Camden Town handing out leaflets, signing up supporters and talking to residents.  A couple of photos below, including our post street stall meet-up in the Lock Tavern.  The presence of BBC, Sky, German ARD and Fuji TV cameras (see still) demonstrated the huge interest in coverage of the campaign as it gets going.

We are continuing to get additional volunteers joining the local team every day or two, and please bear with us as we set up good communications systems with everyone.  This weekend we'll be out in West Hampstead on Saturday morning, and also in Camden.  Drop us a line or send us a tweet if you're looking to come along and help.  We also expect to start setting up some public speakers meetings shortly.
