Social Europe and its partner Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung launched a new series of papers on the impact of Brexit upon key aspects of UK politics and policy in May 2018. In the first paper on ‘Brexit and Devolution’, Social Europe editor, David Gow, a former The Guardian and The Scotsman correspondent and contributor to the Red Paper on Scotland, analysed the constitutional conflict between Westminster and the devolved administrations in Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast. He concluded that the UK faced a stark choice between a new political/constitutional settlement or the break-up of Britain.
