For years the pro EU side has been fragmented. Different groups protected their own branding, their own messages, their own direction. But no single organisation can deliver Rejoin. Not the European Movement, not any party, not any individual campaigner.

By Nicola Nones (Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy at the University of Toronto) and Melle Scholten (Department of Public Administration at the University of Twente) The Eurozone crisis and the subsequent implementation of austerity measures in various member states of the union was in many ways a watershed moment for contemporary populism.
