He provided our Sixth Form students with a holistic view of Brexit since 2014 and offered them a range of reasons as to why our economy is currently stalling more than other equivalent G7 nations. The students engaged enthusiastically in posing a range of questions on how their future prospects and that of the country will be impacted  by current discussions between the government and EU over the Northern Ireland Protocol.

The school appreciated strongly the contributions Professor Menon made to their knowledge of international affairs during his talk and presentation.
