The LSESU European Society deeply regrets the outcome of the referendum. We will remain committed to provide a platform for discussing and debating Europe at the LSE. It is today - more than ever- that Europe needs to be understood not only by LSE students but also by the greater public. From the next academic year onwards, we will hold a range of events in order to have an academic and balanced discussion on topics at heart of the European project. Stay tuned to this page for more information!
