Simon Usherwood said: "We are living in a post-Brexit reality, and the impact of this monumental decision the people of the UK made in 2016 is going to affect all our lives long into the future.

"My contribution to Brexit and Beyond reminds us that the EU is likely to continue to have a big impact on the UK in coming years, so it’s vital that we don’t assume Brexit has made that all go away."
