1975 European referendum historian on Brexit comparisons

Presenter

A referendum on Europe which divided families, communities and politics, but the result was being challenged only a few years later. Politicians from different traditions coming together to create new parties, and old parties being transformed by new leadership.

A vision of the present and future, or a description of Britain after 1975. Doctor Robert Saunders has written a history of that referendum.
