Who's right and who's wrong in the debate on Britain's future in Europe - and what are the key facts? Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown sets out the patriotic case for remaining in Europe. Starting from Winston Churchill, he tells the story of Britain's relationship with the EU and asks how, in a fast-changing world, it can make us more prosperous, safe and secure. Does Europe help or hinder us in creating jobs, managing our economy, improving our environment and tackling terrorism and mass migration? Remaining in Europe, argues Brown, gives us the best balance between the autonomy we desire and the cooperation we need. Britain is better off leading Europe, not leaving it.

Gordon Brown

Gordon Brown is the United Nations Special Envoy for Global Education. The former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and leader of the Labour Party from 2007 to 2010 also served as Chancellor of the Exchequer from 1997 to 2007, making him the longest-serving Chancellor in modern history.

As Prime Minister, his tenure coincided with the financial crisis, and he was one of the first to initiate calls for global financial action; his administration also simultaneously introduced a range of rescue measures within the country.

Brown has a PhD in History from the University of Edinburgh. A Member of Parliament between 1983 and 2015, he lives in Fife, Scotland, and is married to Sarah Brown, a charity campaigner, and the couple have two sons.
