Though many experts are pessimistic about Brexit, Simon Hix (LSE) believes the United Kingdom can develop a healthy relationship with the European Union going forward.

This post gives the views of the authors, not the position of LSE Brexit or the London School of Economics. The Continent is an LSE-Sciences Po student-led initiative aiming to make expert opinion a more significant part of online and social media in Europe.

Simon Hix is the Harold Laski Professor of Political Science and Director of Research at the London School of Economics & Political Science and a Fellow of the British Academy.
