The lecture is open to all with an interest in UK politics and its contentious relationship with the European Union. This includes members of the public, political activists, students, alumni, postgraduates, doctoral candidates, and academics in Liverpool and beyond. The lecture looks at how, through the construction of language and the utilisation of rhetorical tropes, the road to Brexit has its origins throughout UK membership of the European group, including in the period prior to joining.
