Welcome to the next in our #AcademicintheSpotlight series highlighting social scientists doing innovative & dynamic research that you really ought to be aware of.

This week, it’s the turn of @DrScottJames. Scott works on the political economy of finance. Interested? Read on. Image
But first, watch this video, and find out about his work 👇
Scott’s work with Lucia Quaglia has tried to explain how stakeholders in the financial services industry (politicians, the regulators and industry representatives) interact to create new regulation across the sector.

In the case of Brexit, this created a clear puzzle: how did the financial services industry and the City of London – usually powerful lobbying groups – end up with a type of Brexit that they did not want? 🔍🤔

tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…
The answer? The government downgraded the concerns of the financial services industry; the Treasury was sidelined; and collective action problems led to a weakened and divided voice from the City.
Scott’s work has also examined other issues where the outcome was seemingly counter-intuitive, such as the European Central Bank’s refusal to force the relocation of euro clearing away from London after Brexit.

tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
Scott has also argued that Brexit polarisation has impacted negatively on policymaking in the UK: making it harder to learn from mistakes, creating a high level of distrust in outside experts, and a culture of secrecy and suspicion within Whitehall.

Read this blog to find out more about @DrScottJames work and why the banking system collapse in 2007-8 led him to research the political economy of the financial services industry.

🔊The Prime Minister has delivered his big speech on the 'levelling up' agenda ⬇

But what do we already know about 'levelling up'?

@michaelkenny_ & @TKelsey915 lay out the evidence that 'a top-down plan for place-based intervention, based upon bilateral negotiations with local areas, runs the risk of enforcing the priorities & orthodoxies of the centre'📝

.@simonjhix: "In the medium term, Brexit is a challenge to the EU. There will be a UK model of exit."

"At some point, the UK model will seem quite attractive, which could be politically very difficult for the EU."
.@HelenHet20: "The EU's reaction to #Brexit was primarily defensive, but there was an opportunity to face the euro-ins and euro-outs question head on."

"Instead, it was seen as a potential long-term threat to the EU's credibility."

Yesterday we released a NEW report #WhatWouldNoDealMean.

And, you've guessed it, this report is the subject of today's #ThursdayThread. 🧵

ukandeu.ac.uk/wp-content/upl…
.@BorisJohnson has said that no deal with the EU would be a “good outcome” for the UK.

This report highlights what it would mean in terms of trade, fisheries, connectivity, the impact on citizens, Northern Ireland, economics, security, foreign policy, politics and more.
On #trade, the two sides would revert to #WTO rules.

We’re talking tariffs, customs checks, and regulatory checks. In other words, increased hassle, increased time and increased costs for businesses trading with the EU.

@CSBarnard24 explains.

Our BRAND NEW report on what no deal would mean is out today

Our experts are giving a briefing on the report this morning...

(Thread)

. @jillongovt: "No deal now is not the same as last year because the financial settlement, citizens' rights and Northern Ireland were dealt with in the Withdrawal Agreement."

#NoDealBrexit
. @jillongovt: "There could be extensive disruption at the UK-EU border."

"Lots of #Brexit officials were redeployed to #Covid_19 and some things are running late."

Our Director @anandMenon1 will be speaking at the @LordsEUCom Security and Justice Sub-Committee shortly

Follow the session here: parliamentlive.tv/event/index/a0…
.@anandMenon1: "Both sides need to find a way to work with each other on foreign and security policy."

"They're not negotiating partly because @theresa_may tried and failed, and because UK domestic politics have hardened."

@LordsEUCom
. @anandMenon1: "Sovereignty is not such an issue on foreign and defence - it's as much about optics."

"Foreign policy is being underprioritised by both sides. This is not just the UK - the question is whether the EU is willing to accept the UK is not any other 3rd country."
