The 2016 vote to leave the European Union was one of the biggest developments in recent United Kingdom political history. Only one political party was wholly united for Brexit – the United Kingdom Independence Party. This research finds that in the years leading up to Brexit, the United Kingdom Independence Party presented itself as a rigid core-issue complete-populist party. Content analysis shows how pervasive the European Union was in much of the party output and in the contemporaneous newspaper coverage of the party. The party also utilizes complete-populist rhetoric, with ‘othering’ populism as the most prevalent form. The consistent concentration on the European Union collocated with populist messaging, in both news releases and select newspaper coverage, may have helped afford the United Kingdom Independence Party issue-eliteness in the referendum campaign. But this same work may have also ultimately contributed to make them irrelevant by 2017, and possibly moribund by 2018.

Commercial Code

BRITISH commercial law scholars, of whom Prof. Roy Goode and Prof. Aubrey Diamond are two conspicuous examples, have long been attracted to the possibility of using Article 9 of the American Uniform Commercial Code as a basis for modernising and restructuring the English law of chattel security. As readers of Part V of the Crowther Report1 will know, this was the road to reform which the Crowther Committee recommended to the British government as long ago as 1971. In the course of his eighth Crowther Memorial Lecture, given at Queen Mary College in 1983,2 Prof. Goode expressed the hope that before the end of the decade England and Wales would enact the recommendations in the Crowther Report. We know now that he was too sanguine but our hopes were revived when Prof. Diamond submitted his lucid, and in the view of this writer and many others, highly persuasive recommendations to the Department of Trade and Industry in 1989.3

Anxieties about the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Kiobel v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. should not eclipse the fact that redress can, and at times should, be secured elsewhere. Amajor effect of Kiobel is to adjust the aperture of transnational corporate accountability away from the United States–which generally has been the default venue–and toward regional and foreign jurisdictions where violations occur or where responsible beneficiaries of the wrongdoings reside or conduct their businesses.

To Come

The trends of energy consumption and the sources of the associated emissions over the past two decades in the United Kingdom have been analysed. There are indications that the levels of emission of CO 2, NOx, CO, VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and black smoke are rising steadily as a result of energy consumption. The road transport sector emerges as the current overall major contributor of these pollutants and the likely candidate to remain as the fastest growing energy consumer and polluter for some years to come. With the current rate of increase in the number of motor cars, that is 3.9 per cent per annum, and the likely environmental consequences, immediate technological solutions to reduce transport pollution are strongly recommended.
