Federal Trust video: The End of Singapore-on-Thames

17 October 2022

In this Federal Trust video our Chairman John Stevens and Brendan Donnelly discuss the implications for Brexit of the past turbulent ten days in British politics.

They conclude that the failure of the “mini-budget” marks the end of “Singapore on Thames” as a model for Brexit. It is however unclear what other model can replace it. The Conservative Party and the United Kingdom are therefore facing a catastrophic dilemma. Whether carrying on with Brexit or abandoning it, both courses of action will be exceptionally painful and disruptive.
