The authoritative source for independent research on UK-EU relations

01 Mar 2021

7:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Role in the World

Having left the EU, the UK is embarking on a new period in its political, diplomatic and trading history. Re-establishing an independent trade policy, negotiating new and ambitious trade agreements – including the recent application to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) – and navigating a competitive and turbulent world bring distinct opportunities and challenges.

At this event hosted in partnership with ConservativeHome, speakers will discuss what ‘Global Britain’ means in practice, how the UK is equipping itself to forge this new path, and what the future might hold for a country adapting to such changed circumstances.

  • Liz Truss MP, Secretary of State for International Trade
  • Professor Anand Menon, Director of UK in a Changing Europe and Professor of European Politics and Foreign Affairs at King’s College London
  •  Katy Balls, Deputy Political Editor of The Spectator
  • Chair: Paul Goodman, Editor of ConservativeHome

Date and time: 7pm, Monday 1 March
