Beyond Europe: Alternative Perspectives for the EU Referendum - Alan Thornett ‘In’ to oppose xenophobia’

Event  |  posted 18 April 2016

After many years of opposing the EU as an anti-working class construction designed to enforce the new-liberal agenda across Europe Alan Thornett intends to vote to stay ‘in’.

Although remaining in principle in favour of exit, such an outcome he fears would be taken as a green light for ever more racism and anti-migrant xenophobia. Citizens of EU countries now living in this country would face an uncertain future.
