Abstract

ESRC has made substantial investment in Brexit-related research and academic engagement. A flagship, award winning, initiative, the UK in a Changing Europe (UKICE), has established a unique position as a forum and platform for communicating expert analysis with diverse public audiences, work with various media outlets and specialist support for government and civil society organisations. 25 ESRC Brexit Priority Grants are conducting urgent, applied research relevant to the Brexit negotiations in support of UKICE. Well-developed post-Priority Grant plans are in place for research to analyse, think-though and lay longer-term social, economic, spatial, legal and political foundations for 'Governance after Brexit'.
The Leadership Coordination Fellow has the core purpose of maximising the overall value added by the Priority Grants (with UKICE) and Governance after Brexit. Beyond project-specific contributions, their full potential is collective and requires collaboration, cooperation and co-ordination. The Fellow needs experience and skill as an academic leader.
At least for the Priority Grants, the Fellow will work hand-in-glove with UKICE, particularly its Director Prof Anand Menon, Communications Officer, Ben Miller and Office Manager, Pheobe Couzens. UKICE has developed a unique position as an expert and impartial platform for expert input to an often febrile and disputatious debate around Brexit and as a forum for balanced contributions from protagonists. Prof Menon has a distinctively calm, engaging and expert voice on Brexit.
Working with UKICE, the Fellow's role is to facilitate Priority Grant engagement particularly with governments but also with parliaments, the judiciary, civil society organisations and the wider public. As well as operating across the three main branches of government and beyond them to civil society, it needs to function across and connect the UK's nations, regions and localities. Subsequently, the Fellow will play a similar, but more independent role in the Governance after Brexit programme. There will be some scope, at least initially, to continue the partnership with UKICE.
To reach its potential, the Brexit portfolio must draw on diverse academic disciplines and integrate their work effectively. UKICE and the Priority Grants have successfully engendered several inter- and trans-disciplinary research teams. For Governance after Brexit, the range should expand to include stronger elements that draw from such disciplines as geography, sociology, social policy, anthropology, law and/or history.
To maximise the impact of its Brexit-related work, this research portfolio should be connected to other ESRC investments, notably a project 'Between two Unions' on the UK as a and major on-going investments on the economy and public attitudes. A range of centres and investments dealing with such issues as population, migration, civil society, housing and productivity are also making relevant contributions. In addition, connections with research supported by other funders would be valuable.
As well as existing investments, this issues raised by Brexit are reshaping the social science research agenda. The Fellow has a horizon-scanning and scoping role to play in relation to future research priorities, including programmes already being planned in the UK and across Europe. Moreover, if Brexit is a UK process, it can also be thought of as a local instance of a wider set of phenomena, which have had an impact in a number of other societies across the world. New research should address these wider phenomena in their comparative and global contexts.
Finally, Brexit and related developments pose challenges to the social sciences. Some have questioned the credibility of polling research that failed to predict Brexit (just as the economic crash weakened the credibility of economics). Reflection on fundamental social science approaches, concepts and methods will be one element of the Fellow's scoping work.

Planned Impact

Making an impact with academic research is central to the Fellow's role. Its impact aspect will alter as the role's balance changes over time. Initially, coordinating the Brexit Priority Grants to maximising their collective value and link them to research users through UK in a Changing Europe is a priority. That initiative has built a superb, awarding winning communication and engagement platform. I have an established, effective working relationship with its Director (we co-edited a 2016 Brexit 'Political Quarterly' edition). I served as Chair of the UKICE Advisory Group at an earlier period. As Fellow, I would participate actively in the full range of engagement and impact work of the Changing Europe initiative and Priority Grantholders. At least for its initial period, 'Governance after Brexit' could also make use of the 'Changing Europe' platform, but I would also play a more prominent engagement role as its Coordinator.

Governments across the UK are key impact partners in this work, with civil servants in Whitehall, Belfast, Cardiff and Edinburgh especially important partners. Across the portfolio, maintaining both independence and relationships of mutual trust with a range of policy actors from across the UK is a key requirement for the success of this post. The Fellow may have some scope to mediate among governments and with other interested actors.
The withdrawal legislation and post-Brexit developments will pose significant challenges to Westminster and to the devolved legislatures. New ways of Parliamentary working are likely to develop, probably ad hoc. I would aim to help set those changes in a broader conceptual and constitutional framework, to bolster UK representative democratic practice. The judiciary and legal professions are also priorities for engagement. In practice, post-Brexit, the constitution will change through the interplay of the three branches of government.
Civil society organisations - business, unions and third sector organisations (TSOs) are also important partners. I am well placed to enhance the hitherto somewhat underplayed involvement of TSOs in this ESRC portfolio, with a particular focus on TSOs working on issues of gender and of equalities.
The UK in a Changing Europe has a strong media presence and good record of engagement with wider publics. As well as strengthening work in London, I would deploy the Priority Grants and wider ESRC investments to ensure a good spread of activity across the UK. Engaging audiences and partners outside the UK is an important element of some Priority Grants, to inform the Article 50 negotiations, and may grow in the next phases of 'Changing Europe' activity. It will also be an important element of the Fellow's wider scoping work.

The Fellow will facilitate impact partners' access to outstanding applied research on Brexit, and then to a growing body of new longer term and conceptual work on the wider issues it raises. By sustaining trust relationships with the range of key impact partners, the Fellow will develop capacity to feed their priorities and perspectives into the shaping and framing of new research programmes. This role will emulate, but go beyond the established good practice of involving non-academic partners as co-designers of individual projects. As Brexit, and similar events elsewhere in the world, have also challenged some aspects of social science, these perspectives would also contribute to the Coordinator Fellow's work in scoping fundamental research with potential to reshape key aspects of social science. The nodal and networked coordination position also allows the Fellow potentially to serve as an intermediary between various actors and institutions. There may be potential for the Coordinator to use this portfolio to create private spaces for governments and intergovernmental groups to work through ideas and possibilities for and after Brexit. Other impact partners could be offered similar opportunities.
 
Description Two aspects of this award need emphasis. First, it is not for a conventional research project - its a Fellowship focused on research coordination and linkage. Second, it operates in a context of very high uncertainty. A key aim of the Fellowship is to engender and support curiosity-driven, basic social science concerned with the long-term trends and tendencies associated with Brexit. In the context of high uncertainty - and potential instability in the UK's political scene and governmental arrangements - social science researchers need to negotiate their relationships with key current impact partners with some care. As for most UKRI funded research, the complexity and uncertainty surrounding this research has been exacerbated by the Covid pandemic. Equally, the programme of research has an important contribution to make to dealing with Covid and its aftermath. A stream of research focused on basic long-term questions will help in both respects. In addition, the Fellowship puts me in a distinctive position to contribute from the multi-disciplinary and cross-project perspective which which I am furnished. I will concentrate on key findings from the Brexit Priority Grant and Governance after Brexit programmes - operating at a high level of analysis, as well as from my individual contributions.

The extenuated nature of the Brexit process led the ESRC to extend the Fellowship and the Governance after Brexit (GaB) research programme, which was designed to be developed over two phases. Originally, the whole programme was due to conclude in March 2020. Instead, while some phase 1 project are now complete, some are continuing - often with Covid extensions, and phase 2 is just going into the field. In difficult circumstances - and ably supported by the ESRC office and academic colleagues who generously serve on the advisory board and on the selection panel, the phase 2 selection process has been brought to a successful conclusion.

Although the first phase includes some projects with quantitative aspects, both survey-based and using big data, overall, many phase one projects operated ethnographic, qualitative and deliberative modes. This set of projects has found significant disjunctions between politics and policymaking at the centre of the UK system and experience in a variety of locations, many in the north of England or in Northern Ireland, but also in rural places and in the agriculture sector. Before the Covid pandemic, there was a clear sense that the fabric of the UK was stretched very thin. It has proven remarkably resilient through the pandemic. For example, local authorities where planning and policy delivery capacity had been significantly hollowed out nevertheless found ways of working locally, with communities and often with micro or hyper local civil society organisations, to respond to the pandemic. The intersection of Covid with the practical implementation of Brexit has potential significantly to impact on these governance capacities, in ways that Governance after Brexit projects are analysing in highly distinctive and penetrating ways.

[[New content from March 2023] My capacity to work with these projects has been more limited as a consequence of the ending of funding for my time in the GaB co-ordinator role. A no-cost extension to the award has allowed me to continue with the role to some extent. Until the end of September 2022, I was also able to maintain support for the Project Manager role. With that support I was able to organise a programme event in September 2022. Shortly before the submission deadline for this Research Fish round I was invited by the ESRC to make a further NCE extension application. I will not know whether an NCE is made until after the submission deadline.

The second phase set of projects seven projects has bedded in well and is generating significant results. I have sought to facilitate dissemination of project results through UK in a Changing Europe. Despite now having a full workload at my home institution, I have remained on the UK in a Changing Europe Research Committee to facilitate this involvement.]

In terms of my individual contributions, these streams of work interact with work from the Brexit Priority Grants, with other strands of UKICE, and with other projects (including ESRC funded work on Between two Unions, the Welsh Election Study (WES 2019 and WES 2021) grants and WISERD, plus a Legal Education Foundation project the Wales Brexit Civil Society Forum). Around this combination of perspectives I have developed a distinctive analysis of the 'Anglo-British imaginary' that shapes constitutional discourse and political and policy practice at the UK state's centre. This analysis of the dominant 'imagined nation' has been developed through a series of articles in leading journals: the Journal of Law and Society, Public Law, Regional Studies and Social & Legal Studies. Relatedly, my on-going research on multiple national identities has found that those emphasising English identity tended to vote leave in the Brexit referendum, while those emphasising Scottish or Welsh id, tended to vote remain. To put the point another way, British identity is associated with opposite attitudes and behaviours in England as compared to Scotland and Wales.

Alongside work from the Brexit Priority Grants (including work published in journal symposia/special editions I have edited) the Anglo-British imaginary and multiple national ids analyses feed in to a second key finding. While sometimes highly effective in campaign mode, Anglo-British politicians find it difficult to 'read' the UK across its territory for the purposes of governing. That is also true of its central administration. Instead, a series of distinct and strikingly encapsulated public debates coexist in various nations and jurisdictions, territories and localities that make up the UK. Both within England and across the UK, territorial governance is highly fragmented and lacks coherence. The UK central government struggles to 'read' 'its' territories for the purposes of governance (see UKICE 'long read' https://ukandeu.ac.uk/long-read/the-possible-break-up-of-the-united-kingdom/). Moreover, effective territorial governance requires that the central state enters into effective working relationships with partners of various kinds, reflecting the 'paradox of structure' - the way in which structures at once constrain and facilitate government action.

The observation that the ambition to 'take back control' seems beset by challenges associated with tendencies to try to evade 'hard choices' still seems relevant (flagged in publications shortly before the award of the Fellowship) as does a tendency for relationships between UK governments to be fractious. PM Sunk seems to be mitigating these features. Fractious relationships between the UK and devolved governments in Scotland and Wales, as well as relationships in Northern Ireland are marked by a striking tendency on all sides to short-termism. On the one hand, the UK government seems focused on preventing independence in Scotland, or Irish unification in the short term. Yet, over the longer term, there is little evidence of a plan to address a situation in which support for Scottish independence seems unlikely to fall much below 50% and a recent poll showed support at a historic high of 39% in Wales (even if that settled down to, say one in three). Equally, should , say, Scotland become independent, Anglo-Scottish relations would remain critical for both sides. Irish unification would not eliminate close social, family and individual relationships across these islands. Whatever the trajectory of the headline constitutional issues, the UK may well face an extended period of deadlock - or toxic mutual hostility - between these territories, their political systems and leaders. Yet there is very little evidence of forward-looking work on how relations between governments across the nations and jurisdictions that make up the UK - or indeed across sub-national authorities within each of them either in the academy or government. There is, though Interest in working through these issues with me - and making use of the academic networks developed through and around the Fellowship from some strategic officials in key government departments.
Exploitation Route A range of actors from the UK's four central governments, its four parliaments/legislatures, local government, political parties, businesses, trade unions, organised civil society, communities, and the media can make use of the research and engagement work funded under GaB and UKiCE. UKiCE has developed a superb platform for the communication of social science research and expertise to a wide range of audiences. As co-ordinator of GaB and in my roles with UKiCE and ESRC, I act as a conduit and broker between these wider audiences and partners - and the research teams. I also seek to link up academic researchers with UKiCE, both so as to disseminate findings, but also to make links to potential partners and audiences of various kinds.

ESRC - and potentially also other research funders - could look to the findings of the existing research projects, as well as the coverage of UKiCE to consider future funding priorities. Several of the GaB innovation grants are coming to an end soon. As well as their substantive findings, many of these projects have thrown up specific implications for future research. For example, Brexit has thrown the UK's internal arrangements - both its multi-national union and pattern of local government and politics - into stark relief. That these issues are at stake was clear from a relatively early stage - witness the successful bid for the Between two Unions grants. The unsettled and extended character of the phase of Brexit up to the UK's formal departure has both dramatised these issues - and mean that the original end-date for Between two Unions grant is before current end date for the transition period. Some research in this space may emerge through the GaB second wave, but significant additional research is needed in this area.

At the time of writing, the UK's relationship with the EU also appears to be set on a disputatious course after Brexit. Ongoing Governance after Brexit projects across both phases is well placed to address key aspects of this potentially fraught relationship over the coming period. The work here ranges over political and economic dimensions of Northern Ireland and the protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, on the position of migrants (in both directions between the UK and the EU), and on public attitudes and expectations about what Brexit delivers, how political identities are linked with Brexit and UK democracy and UK economic performance. Alongside this work, ongoing research attached directly to UKICE and through its network of senior fellows adds further strength to this broad portfolio, at least for its current funding period. Thereafter, there is a risk of significant gaps in the ESRC research portfolio on this second critical aspect of the future of the UK. Fractious relationships within the UK and between the UK and its nearest neighbours generate an urgent need for well grounded and judiciously presented social science, which seeks to set the relationships in a long term perspective informed by social science research of the highest quality.

Description 2022-23 has been another mixed year for the Governance and Brexit (GaB) Leadership fellow role. After March 2022, the Fellowship moved to a No-Cost Extension mode. My time was no longer funded for the role. I was able to maintain support for the Project Manager Rolle until the end of September 2022. I was, at long last, able to organise a face-to-face project meeting to bring the two phases of GaB projects together. Thereafter, however, my role has had to become more limited. I have sought to focus it on co-ordinating with the new UKICE team and new group of Senior Fellows. Indications given in the autumn of 2021 that the ESRC would look to continue support for coordination to link wider research with UKICE were not, in the end, linked to the Governance after Brexit research programme. Instead, a coordination role was made available as an augmentation of one of a new set of senior fellows. That role was filled towards the end of 2022 - since when I have worked with the colleague holding it to help make the most of the connection between Governance after Brexit project teams and UKICE. As a result, findings of the GaB 2021-22 has been a mixed year for the Governance and Brexit (GaB) Leadership Fellow role. In March 2021 vaccine rollout success held out the real prospect of holding face-to-face meetings and events by the autumn. But the rolling impact of Covid made that impossible. A good deal of wasted time and effort went into the planning of these events. On the other hand, closer formal integration of the Fellowship with UKiCE and the normalisation of videoconferencing has opened new possibilities for impact and engagement and for the dissemination of research findings - with notable advantages for working across places. Overall, despite significant challenges, 2021-22 has seen a successful pivot to new ways of working and an expansion of the scope, range and impact of work associated with the Fellowship role. Plans for face-to-face events in the autumn have been transposed to the spring, early summer and early autumn of 2022. New online research focused events have proven highly successful. I began running more formal online research seminar type events in autumn 2020, initially on a relatively small scale and run independently of UKiCE - and for a period when the Project Manager role was unfilled, also through the Wales Governance Centre. From autumn 2021 I developed new online events run through UKiCE branded as 'Research Insights' (as an element of a more closely structured relationship with UKiCE, see below). In general, UKiCE public events target general, policy, political and media audiences. Without losing sight of that wider appeal, Research Insights are intended to dig more deeply into the research evidence that underpins GaB and UKiCE. Research Insights proved an immediate success - attracting live virtual audiences of over 100 and later online access taking most over 500 views and some well over 1000. Overall, these online events have disseminated work from 10 GaB projects (8/10 first, 3/7 second wave projects), 3 Senior Fellows (SFs) and 5 other ESRC funded initiatives. Given that the Research Insights events are now open to a wide public, I have initiated a distinct Work in Progress mode to allow researchers to test research findings in private seminar events. Again, the use of virtual video conferencing enhances this aspect of the Fellowship work. GaB projects have achieved significant impacts at local/community/regional, sub-state national and UK wide levels. Examples include work with both hyper-local and city-wide community organisations especially in Manchester, impacts on agricultural and environmental policy and on rural development policy operating initially primarily through DEFRA and policy level impact and engagement with DWP. The normalisation of online work has also changed the dynamics of impact and engagement. Development of personal relationships with non-academic research user is fundamental to effective social science impact. Much of this activity is necessarily confidential and would be inappropriate to report formally. In the past it has depended on face-to-face meetings and been difficult to conduct at a distance. While an element of in-person meeting remains very valuable, the routine nature of online work means it is now possible to sustain these relationships remotely. Relationships with politicians, officials and civil society organisations have been particularly important around the Fellowship role. They provide the foundation for bringing together key academics together - connections through the UKiCE SFs network have been particularly important, as has the inclusion of researchers from GaB projects and the ESRC Between two Unions large grant - to generate collective, interdisciplinary evidence on highly complex matters of UK territorial governance. For roundtable sessions with UK and devolved politicians and officials - some confidential and off-the-record, others organised on a Chatham House Rule basis - have been a particular feature of this work. Academics can make critical contributions based on well-informed expertise and relations of trust. There is strong evidence that UK political and policy debate is highly segmented territorially and that key issues require multi-disciplinary expertise. As a consequence, the development and maintenance of academic impact networks covering variety of disciplines and including experts with strong roots in particular nations and places has been essential. As well as a range of meetings, these interdisciplinary and multi-territorial networks have also generated collective policy briefings and/or evidence documents that no individual scholar would have been able to produce (such as a report on the UK Internal Market legislation in autumn 2020 and evidence submitted to a House of Lords Scrutiny Committee on Common Frameworks in autumn 2021 - on which the Committee commented 'Members wanted to particularly thank you for the quality of your submission and they fully appreciate the time taken to produce it. It will be invaluable for the ongoing inquiry into the Common Frameworks Programme.'). Work of this kind has been supported, enhanced and supplemented by a series of projects funded by the Legal Education Foundation on Brexit and Civil Society in Wales. This project has provided me with evidence of the views of organised Civil Society in Wales - and facilitated stakeholder meetings with UK and Welsh government institutions and officials. These projects have cooperated with sibling investments in Northern Ireland, Scotland and England - again making cross-territorial connections a key feature of the work. Taken together, this body of work puts me in a distinctive position to identify and work across myriad changes in public policies, policy structures and the machinery of territorial government that are being made at the same time. Typically prosaic and detailed, taken together these changes amount to a basic change in structure of devolution and of UK governance more generally. The changes pull in a variety of different directions. Relatively few people recognise the scale of the changes that are underway. While, taken together they will unavoidably amount to a basic change, the character of the arrangements that will emerge has not yet been set. Equally, there is little or no evidence of an overall strategy - or even that any part of government has a synoptic view of the possible impact of changes that are being made. A distinctive body of research expertise that can support governments at all levels in making sense of these changes has been built up over recent years. The next few years will be critical in the reshaping of the UK territorial state after Brexit. Since key ESRC investments - such as the Between two Unions project - have now come to an end, there is a risk that UK academia may not be in a position to sustain this interdisciplinary and multi-territorial capacity over this critical period. The Fellowship was designed to work closely with UKiCE - including with the Brexit Priory Grants (BPGs) and SFs. Its critical, if background/lowkey, function has been to support and draw out the research dimension of the ESRC's investments in its area, reflected in the Fellowship being co-badged as Research Director of UKiCE. This activity operates on a different, more conventionally academic footing and timescale (for example, an SI in Regional Studies based on the BPGs which ended in 2019 was eventually published in late 2021). Another low-key aspect of this role is liaising with researchers on other ESRC investments relevant to GaB/UKiCE and linking them up with the hub - this is time-consuming work which nevertheless plays an important role in grounding UKiCE in wider research trajectories and providing opportunities for dissemination of findings through the UKiCE platform. My original application reflected on the challenge posed by Brexit for the social sciences (notably the wide-spread perception of a failure to 'predict' the referendum outcome and sense that most social scientists were part of an 'expert' class opposed to it). Having worked closely with UKiCE without being fully 'part' of it at least until recently, I am, I think, in a distinctive position to reflect on UKiCE as a 'model'. I used the introductory article for the Regional Studies SI to being reflecting on the UKiCE model question. At the invitation of its Professor Christina Boswell and Michael Keating, I have joined the core group of a Royal Society of Edinburgh project 'Rethinking Policy Impact' (which now holds a small grant from ESRC) and will reflect further on this question in that context. I believe that there is a strong case for enhancing, or at least maintaining, the profile of the academic research dimensions of the ESRC's investments in UKiCE as well as of GaB. Understandably, given resource pressures, from autumn 2021 I have been aware of uncertainty about the future of the research convening role associated with the Fellowship. This uncertainty has meant that longer-term plans for collective programme-level research outputs have had to be paused. I had hoped that opportunity to pick up those longer term plans. To a significant extent that wider opportunity no longer exists. Some more modest cross-programme work may still be possible, should a further no cost extension be made. I have always worked closely with UKiCE., 2021-22 saw a step-change towards a much more structured and integrated relationship. These changes were in response to suggestions about the GaB-UKiCE relationship from the ESRC Office and suggestions in evaluations of UKiCE about its internal structures. As well as the substantive developments already discussed (Research Insights events and closer co-ordination with the network of SFs), this has resulted in the Fellowship work being fully integrated into the UKiCE leadership structures. Again enabled by the normalisation of videoconferencing and hybrid meeting formats, I can participate fully as a member of the UKiCE Senior Leadership team, its Research Committee and in its wider team meetings often from Cardiff. I bring a GaB research-focused agenda as well as distinctive disciplinary and territorial networks to this aspect of the role. Since November 2022 my role with UKiCE has had to reduce, given that ESRC was no longer funding my operation in that role. The Fellowship has also facilitated a series of follow-on developments. The PDRA position that was at one time associated with the Fellowship proved critical to sustaining the capacity for the Welsh Election Studies - both the emergency bid for WES for the 2019 general election and for the longer-term investment in WES 2021. It has also facilitated a small level of involvement of Wales based researchers and issues in the ESRC's new Centre on Inclusive Trade Policy. In a challenging context, I believe that, as the GaB Fellow I have achieved significant direct impact and supported, enabled and made a contribution to the achievement of networked impacts through GaB, UKiCE and wider research collaborations.

Impact Improving understanding among Government Ministers and MPs of the institutional and culture dimensions of Intergovernmental Relations Q383 Robin Millar: Thank you, Chair. Gentlemen, good to see you this morning. ...Professor Dan Wincott, who has the Blackwell Law and Society Chair at Cardiff University School of Law and Politics, wrote an interesting article about the review and the proposals for a UK intergovernmental council. He basically talked about the importance of the language being used and how this is a very contested space. My simple question for you is: do you see this as helpful to you in your work, as Secretary of State and Minister? ... Q387 Robin Millar: In some ways, you have confirmed there one of Professor Wincott's observations: much as the deckchairs may have been rearranged from the old JMCs and previous intergovernmental relations, at the end of the day, this is going to boil down to co-operation and good will between all sides. That seems to be what you are saying. Simon Hart: By all sides, you mean the different Governments? Robin Millar: The different parties-exactly. The different Governments. Simon Hart: Yes. Although it is easy, and sometimes even tempting, to highlight the disagreements, the fact is that there are also an awful lot of areas of agreement. In a number of the big funding decisions that we will be taking-possibly around freeports, possibly around big infrastructure projects that are coming up and around some of the levelling-up and shared prosperity agenda-the relationship between ourselves, the Welsh Government, local authorities and others will be absolutely central; the success or failure of these things will be absolutely conditional on that co-operation. As I say, I think that six or seven times out of 10 it works quite well, but there are other occasions where it doesn't work quite so well. I think one of the examples earlier about the deliberate conflation of some of the funding announcements recently is one such example. There are plenty of good ones. Almost every morning, I have to sort of slap myself across the face, take a deep breath and say, "Right. Behave yourself. Do what's best, not what's popular." I do not always succeed, I regret to say, in my ambitions.

Impact An inaugural event to initiate the Trade Justice Wales network, convened through my work on civil society organisations and Brexit in Wales. The project supports and enhances the quality of debate about trade policy across civil society in Wales, while also supporting the articulation of their perspectives to Welsh and UK government actors. Welsh Civil society organisations have a notorious weak policy capacity - this work seeks to help fill that gap for a newly important area of policy.

Description Collaboration with Brexit Civil Society Forum, Wales - a partnership between the Wales Governance Centre (WGC, Cardiff University and the Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA). 
Organisation Wales Civil Society Forum
Sector Learned Society 
PI Contribution I was PI on a grant from The Legal Education Foundation (TLEF) to support the Civil Society Forum on Brexit - Wales ('the Forum') and I am CI on a follow-up grant that extended the project. This forum is a collaboration between the Cardiff University's Wales Governance Centre and the Wales Council for Voluntary Action - the peak membership organisation for the voluntary sector in Wales. The Forum has also engaged in further collaboration with sibling projects elsewhere in the UK. Its purpose is to inform and support debate among civil society organisation in Wales in relation to Brexit and to support preparation for Brexit related changes that will impact on the sector in Wales (where is it much more heavily exposed to potential loss of EU funding than anywhere else in the UK). The project has developed the following portfolio of activities -described in the impact section below. A follow-up grant (for which I was also PI) was been awarded by TLEF to the initial award for a collaborative event bringing together projects and partners working on the implications of Brexit for the third sector across various parts of the UK. Its main activity wasan event in Belfast May 2019. £21,000 secured from TLEF - Grant Aware dates: 18/12/18 to 30/06/2019. The project's Co-I is Prof Jo Hunt and its researcher/coordinator Charles Whitmore. My involvement in this project has supported and enriched my work on my Governance and Brexit Research Fellowship. The portfolio of ESRC research has not focused much on the implications of Brexit for Civil Society - while TLEF has offered support to a suite of projects in this area. The Fellowship funds 50% of my time - in my view it is critically important that I am able to devote the other 50% of my working time to active engagement in research and research related impact that is relevant to Brexit. My credibility as a research leader depends on it. If I am also able to bring in relevant areas that are not, for whatever reason, significantly covered off by ESRC/UKRI funded projects, that is an addition benefit. The project also builds on relationships developed with colleagues at WCVA in the context of my role as a CI in the WISERD-Civil Society ESRC Centre.
Collaborator Contribution WCVA is a partner in this project. It has provided support for the project researcher and facilitated connections with civil society organisations across Wales. Anna Nicholl - Director of Strategy is the key contact point with WCVA. WCVA Chief Executive Ruth Marks and Director of Operations Phil Fiander have also participated through the Forum.

Taking primary responsibility for running some events (such as the Brexit and Gender event). Collaboration with devolution experts among the UKICE Senior Fellows. Coo-ordination with the Brexit Priority Grantholders. Effective co-investigation role on particular UKICE research projects - such as the 'GE 2019 Urgency Grant Project on 'Comfortable Leavers'.
Collaborator Contribution UKICE is a highly distinctive and effective ESRC investment in public and policy engagement for the social sciences. It provides a platform for the public presence of the Governance after Brexit programme, and for my own more individual work through the fellowship.
Impact A selection of work from this partnership includes the following: A host of engagement activities, including blogs, interviews with newspapers and podcasts or participation in events. Sustained engagement with Senior Fellows Profs Katy Hayward and Nicola McEwen (and with a group of other colleagues, including former Senior Fellow Pro Jo Hunt) in work on the Internal Market Bill over the summer and autumn of 2020 - involved engagement with UK, Scottish and Welsh Ministers and with senior policy officials. Role in the design and running of events, including leading on some events (eg Gender and Brexit event). Leading on collaborative academic research collaboration around UKICE, including organising and co-organising academic seminars (initially face-to-face, subsequently on-line) including around the Brexit Priority Grants, but also with other research including other ESRC funded research (such as Between Two Unions and WISERD, on which I am a co-I, but also, for example, with Brexit and Belonging and the Decision-Makers Panel) This work has generated academic outputs that I have edited, such as a Symposium in the Journal of Common Market Studies and a Special Issue of Regional Studies. These are multi-disciplinary collaborations including political scientists, policy analysts, socio-legal researchers and economists and agricultural economists.

PI Contribution This event was a full programme meeting - bringing together projects from both its first and second phases. Due to delays in starting the second phase project - set by the ESRC in the light of the more complex and slow moving process of Brexit followed by the restrictions of Covid, this event was the only occasion on which it has proven possible to bring the full programme together. Four of the 17 projects were not represented. Two of the smaller 'innovation' projects from the first phase were unable to accept the invitation. Another two projects intended to participate, but personal circumstances intervened at a late stage. The event allowed broader lessons to be drawn out from across the two phases. The meeting facilitated collaboration among project teams on shared themes and across social science disciplinary boundaries. .
Collaborator Contribution Contributions were made on public attitudes research, questions of migration, methods in and results of experimental survey and other public attitudes research, and qualitative, especially ethnomethodogical methods in research on Brexit.

PI Contribution This event was a full programme meeting - bringing together projects from both its first and second phases. Due to delays in starting the second phase project - set by the ESRC in the light of the more complex and slow moving process of Brexit followed by the restrictions of Covid, this event was the only occasion on which it has proven possible to bring the full programme together. Four of the 17 projects were not represented. Two of the smaller 'innovation' projects from the first phase were unable to accept the invitation. Another two projects intended to participate, but personal circumstances intervened at a late stage. The event allowed broader lessons to be drawn out from across the two phases. The meeting facilitated collaboration among project teams on shared themes and across social science disciplinary boundaries. .

Country United Kingdom 
Sector Academic/University 
PI Contribution A key role for my Fellowship is to nurture links between the academic community - included those funded under various initiatives associated UK in a Changing Europe (UKICE) - and that initiative core or hub. UKICE is very strongly oriented to impact and engagement work. Nevertheless, the credibility of the initiative rests on the quality of the academic research that underpins it. Moreover, researchers closely associated with UKICE have been under notably strong pressure to operate in ways that differ sharply in their rhythms from conventional academic life. Finally, partly as a consequence of working at high pressure, these researchers have extremely valuable perspectives and insights for academic research in their fields. I see my role as including the carving out opportunities to bring together researchers and develop publications - especially in high quality refereed journals - for groups of researchers. Following on from an application in a competitive process, I was invited to edit a symposium of the Journal of Common Market Studies JCMS - the leading interdisciplinary journal focused on the study of the EU. We held a symposium at Kings College in London for the four substantive papers to be submitted to JCMS on 27 February 2019.

Results and Impact Blog post on the UK and a Changing Europe Website making use of data from the Future of England Survey to assess the relationship between English identity and attitudes towards Brexit, focusing on the implications for the UK's wider territorial constitution. I was contacted by Mark Easton, BBC Home Affairs editor, after producing this blog to work with him on the development of a major survey on public attitudes in England (parallel surveys took place in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland). I helped to shape the design of the survey which led to a series of BBC outputs in the first full week of June 2018. These outputs included a sustained series of items of BBC radio and TV news and a series of articles by Mark Easton on the BBC website: 3rd June on The English Question https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44306737, 5 June What lies beneath England's allegiances and rivalries https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44321409, 7 June Can England become optimistic again? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44357001

They aim to find out what the potential real effects could be for farming families: how resilient will their incomes be, how will their production decision making be affected, and what are the implications for UK agri-trade across the industry as a whole, for rural communities and for the consumer.

Results and Impact Invited presentation to DLUHC Union and Devolution Directorate away day in Cardiff. The DLUHC team was interested in exploring attitudes in Wales, including the Welsh Government, towards the changing framework for UK territorial governance after Brexit. The event took place during the Conservative leadership campaign, and the team anticipated an unsettled future for their work. Essentially, they work looking for ideas about how to make the UK government's work in Wales more effective. I was able to offer some suggestions, albeit constrained by what appeared at the time as the abrasive setting of political relationships between UK and devolved governments. In particular, I suggested a focus on offering to collaborate with the Welsh Government on at least one major infrastructure investment in Wales. Given the constraints on devolved capacity for major infrastructure work in Wales, there is scope to engender a more cooperative spirit between the governments in this way. Perhaps it could build on earlier work on 'city deals'.

Results and Impact The process of leaving the EU polarised public opinion across Britain. 'Leave' and 'Remain' became strong identities that exercised a powerful influence on political attitudes and choices. Do these identities continue to shape British politics after Brexit? How do they exercise their influence? Are they fading? Faced with new choices after leaving the EU and the trade-offs inherent within them, what package of options do people in Britain prefer. How do people want Britain to use sovereignty it has regained after Brexit?

The event draws on two ongoing ESRC-funded research projects:

Professor Sara Hobolt will present on 'A Country Divided? Polarisation and identity after Brexit'.

Professor John Curtice will present results from the deliberative polling undertaken for 'How Does Post-Brexit Britain wish to Exercise its Sovereignty? Dr Ceri Davies will introduce qualitative results from the project.
