Title Brexit and Devolved Nations Paradox or How can we explain the difference Brexit vote in devolved nations of Scotland & Wales? A critical Analysis
Summary The exit of the UK from the European Union, generally referred to as Brexit, became one of the most important political events of our decade and is currently a cause of harsh debates. Resulting of the 2016 Referendum vote to leave, the UK government led by the current Prime Minister Theresa May started the withdrawal process on 29 March 2017 by triggering Article 50 of EU Treaty of Lisbon, which puts the UK on track to leave in two years by 29th March 2019. The final agreement bill between the EU and UK is underway nowadays. These developments make the situation to be more precarious now. A lot has been discussed in the recent scholarly discourse about this phenomenon from the Britain’s point of view, but little has been studied about the impact of media coverage of the Brexit on the people’s values and opinions in devolved nations of Scotland and Wales. This thesis proposes to study the abovementioned issues. The thesis is organised into eight chapters, abstract and appendices, and it helps in delivering all the aspects of the issue in a manner that are easy to understand for non-expert audiences and to adapt to the research in an appropriate manner.
