Britain Stronger in Europe

Britain Stronger in Europe is the official 'remain' campaign group promoting the benefits of continued membership of the European Union, in the run up to Britain's referendum on 23 June 2016. It was the only campaign group to apply to the Electoral Commission to act as flag bearer for the remain campaign.

The campaign's website summarises its position, arguing that:

'To vote to remain part of Europe is to vote for a stronger, better off, safer Britain that delivers opportunity for individuals and families, now and in the future. To vote to leave is to take a leap into the unknown, risking a weaker economy, the prospects of future generations and a loss of influence on the world stage.'

It enjoys support from across the political spectrum, with backing from key figures in the Conservative Party and the Labour Party, as well as the former leader of the Green Party, and pro-EU groups such as European Movement, Open Europe and the Centre for European Reform.
