David Baldock (2022): There are a number of possible paths for EU-UK cooperation on environmental regulation, including dynamic alignment with EU law at one extreme and systematic departure from EU standards at the other. The UK has duplicated some regulatory mechanisms, though little strategy on environmental policy had emerged until the publication of the Retained EU law (Revocation and Reform) Bill, which would repeal all EU law by the end of 2023. The creation of a dedicated forum for environmental EU-UK cooperation, or rejoining the EEA, could present steps towards a robust maintenance of environmental standards on both sides of the channel.
Rosa Crawford (2022): The UK-EU Trade & Cooperation Agreement contained enforceable commitments for governments to maintain high standards of employment and social rights, and environmental and climate standards.
Frances Foley (2022): Authored by Frances Foley, Deputy Director of Compass, and with a foreword by Lisa Nandy MP, the Shadow Levelling Up Secretary, this publication details the ways in which the UK can learn from Germany in order to rebuild and restructure the economy to ensure that it works for everyone.
Yasser Louati & Seema Syeda (2022): From far-right politicians entering the mainstream to long-term systemic discrimination in employment, housing, education, sport and services, Muslims are one of Europe's most targeted populations. Laïcité, which is hailed as one of France's cornerstone values, has become an ideological tool to target the presence of Muslims in the French public space.
(Luke Raikes) 2022: In recent years, UK policymakers have sought to learn from Germany's relatively successful attempts to rebalance regional growth since reunification. But the UK must learn the right lessons from Germany, to address its severe regional inequalities.
Recent political scandals in Westminster have once again put the issue of trust in politicians at the top of the agenda.
While MPs have become more representative in terms of gender, ethnicity and sexuality in recent years, there is a large and growing ‘representation gap’ on class.
This ‘class ceiling’ is not driven by discrimination against working class candidates by voters, but by a lack of supply of candidates by parties. Representation in politics matters because it has an impact on the policy decisions taken and the voting behaviour of citizens.
In this report we argue that political parties and government should take action to close the ‘representation gap’.
Ed Arnold (June 2022): From 23.–25.3.2022, RUSI and the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) hosted a three-day British-German defence and security policies dialogue. This brought together leading parliamentarians, and security and defence experts from both countries to discuss the war in Ukraine and other threats and challenges to European security. Read the report of the dialogue here.
