Prophecy of doom: EU member-states predict Brexit disaster
Several EU states were present at the debate, including Poland, represented by Agatha Gostynska-Jakubowska, a research fellow from the Centre for European Reform. Joining her from Denmark was Dr Sara Hagermann, an assistant professor at the LSE European Institute. Germany was represented by Die Welt correspondent Alan Posener, and Ireland sent Brian O'Connell, UK consultant director of the British Irish Chamber of Commerce and former editor of RTE news. ...Acknowledging the attention the referendum is getting in Poland, Gostynska-Jakubowska focused on the differences between government and experts opinions, suggesting that each group is responding to different agendas.
