The implications of Brexit for the Institute’s concerns

Feb 1, 2020 by

from The Christian Institute:

[…]  In summary, Brexit is clearly significant for many issues. But on the Christian issues with which the CI is engaged, either the EU has never been involved, or the immediate Brexit impact is more subtle. Only time will tell.

This is mainly because in so many areas affecting our work successive governments have passed laws not required by the EU. And there is no indication of any policy departure. Just because the freedom is there, doesn’t mean the Government will use it.

In future, any government can more easily change the UK’s laws after Brexit, if they have the political will to do so. Our politicians will be more accountable. Sovereignty is squarely with the UK Parliament. Politicians will no longer be able to blame ‘Europe’ as they have so often done in the past. They cannot evade responsibility.

As you can see, there is still much to do for The Christian Institute.
