Your Weekly Constitutional

You’ve heard of something called “Brexit,” but what is it? Turns out, Brexit is shorthand for the possibility of a British exit from the European Union. Britons will soon vote on Brexit, and the polls show the election too close to call. Such an exit, if it occurs, will have major constitutional implications for the United Kingdom, and a major impact on the rest of the world, including the United States. Good thing we’ve got Northumbria University law professor William Walton to explain it all to us. William is joined by one of his students, Melissa Davis, who is also a city councillor in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. In Part II, we'll talk to several other of William's law students. These young people have some definite opinions on a wide range of subjects, including, of course, Brexit. So stay tuned.
