Breaking Point (Paperback)

Paperback. As the aftermath of Brexit continues to unfold, people around the world are wondering just how Brexit happened, where post-referendum Britain is heading, and what lessons might be learned by the global community. Gary Gibbon, a preeminent political broadcaster who had extraordinary access to both sides of the campaign leading up to the referendum, explores all of these issues in Breaking Point. Examining official and off-the-record meetings with both senior politicians and ordinary voters, Gibbon addresses tough questions that are troubling the entire European continent: Now that the United Kingdom has voted for Brexit, to what extent can it truly leave a set of relationships that extend to the countrys doorstep? And will the decision be a lethal blow to the European Union, perhaps spurring on copycat secession movements? In July 2016 David Cameron rolled the dice on Britain's 43-year-old membership of the EU. Breaking Point explains where post-referendum Britain is heading, how we got here, and what lessons might be learned. It combines analysis of official and off-the-record meetings with senior politicians as well as encounters with ordinary voters.
