Has been great working with Alex Bogdan and Ipsos on this project! Keep your eyes peeled on Friday for Dr Steph Luke’s next blog 📈

My new blog UK in a Changing Europe argues that the EU’s green policies are under threat not only by the far right but also centrist parties.

After Lee Anderson’s defection to Reform UK I discuss what this means for the Conservative Party UK in a Changing Europe

Celebrate #IWD2024 by reading some of the best in the business from UK in a Changing Europe 1/LOADS

6/ We are thrilled to have fantastic early career women colleagues in leadership positions in the PSA as well. This #IWD , we want to highlight the women of the 2021-2023 and 2023-2025 PSA ECN committee and the ECN's work in promoting equality, diversity and inclusion ✨
