Since we announced our intention to go out on a high at the end of January, many BrexitCentral readers have been very kind in saying how much they will miss our daily round-ups of Brexit news and comment.
They have often supplemented the compliment by asking how best to stay informed as the trade talks with the EU commence and we move to a completely different phase of thinking about what to do with the freedoms we have recovered from Brussels.
What follows is a selection of websites, campaign groups and think-tanks which we would suggest are worth keeping an eye on – and signing up for their email newsletters where they have them – in order to keep abreast of developments and debates in the post-Brexit UK. Needless to say, this is not a corporate endorsement of any of the sites or groups, or of the material they publish, but merely us trying to be helpful and collegiate!
