CEP mentions in Parliament:
International Trade Committee chair references LSE blog
27 April 2018
In a one-off session on the economic effects of trade policy Angus MacNeil (SNP), Chair of the International Trade Cttee, referenced a recent LSE blog which suggested that there was a consensus between leading economists that Brexit would make the UK worse off. The Chair went on to ask the witnesses how broad this consensus was. Professor Smith of University of Sussex replied that this was a pretty broad consensus made up of economists at LSE, the National Institute of Social and Economic Research and Sussex University.
