ABOUT US
A political campaign run by Brits on the Continent studying European Affairs, The IN Crowd seeks to convince voters back home to elect to stay IN the EU come 23rd June!
The UK-EU referendum poses a multitude of complex questions relating to the relationship between the two. We wish to analyse and address many of these in our modest political campaign, formulating a case for support for the EU and highlighting the overwhelming advantage which the UK stands to enjoy by remaining a member.
