Losing Europe: Brexit and the End of Britain

By Joel Schalit, Josh White, John Foster and 8 more

Featuring the best of The Battleground’s Brexit coverage, Losing Europe provides a fresh take you won’t find anywhere else. From Belfast to Bolsover, Team Battleground bins the spin from the tabloids and sets things straight.

Instead of restoring sovereignty to the British people, it hands it over to the country’s elites and their American friends. With a little help from oligarchs and troll farms of dubious national provenance.
Never mind the role of the country’s news media in making it happen, and their incitement of British voters against foreigners and minorities. Brexit is a platform for populism and xenophobia in an era of globalisation and diversity.

For a country with an imperial history like the United Kingdom, it was the worst possible regression. But, a logical consequence of four decades of neoliberalism, without any political horizon. Hence, Losing Europe: Brexit and the End of Britain.

Featuring the best of The Battleground’s coverage of the Brexit crisis, Losing Europe provides a fresh take you won’t find anywhere else. From Belfast to Bolsover, Team Battleground bins the spin from the tabloids and sets the record straight.
