This has not been an easy year for Europe – from the troubles in Greece, to the refugee crisis, to the rise in populist groups all across the continent. We have seen the first referendum on the UK’s membership of the European Union for more than 40 years and, for many of you, it will have been your first opportunity to vote. What happens now? What do the results tell us? What are the prospects for the European economy and what does this mean for the future of the European Union?
