Lord Peter Hain - Public Lecture: Brits in a Mess: What to Make of Brexit

So far, ‘Brexit’ has not gone smoothly for Prime Minister Theresa May.As parliamentarians and lawmakers debate endlessly on the ‘divorce deal’, Britain seems to be spiralling into deeper chaos. And, with the deadline of 29 March looming and a ‘no deal Brexit’ still a possibility, Britain is facing massive uncertainty.

To cut through the noise and to make sense of it all, Wits Business School is pleased to welcome back Visiting Professor Lord Peter Hain, who will deliver a lecture on what Brexit, as it currently stands, means for Britain, Ireland, the EU and Britain’s other trade partners.

An author, Labour politician, activist, member of the House of Lords and former UK MP, Europe and Cabinet Minister including for Northern Ireland, Lord Hain is eminently qualified to provide an analysis on the status of Brexit in 2019 and the implications for South Africa, one of Britain’s biggest trade partners.
