The European Movement
|
The European Movement was founded at the 1948 Congress of Europe
by Sir Winston Churchill and other post-war leaders to bring about the economic, monetary
and political union of Europe. In the 1950s and 1960s, the all-party European Movement led
the “Britain in Europe” campaign and organised the massive “yes” vote
in the 1975 referendum. It is an international organisation with offices throughout Europe
which plays a significant role in both informing the general public throughout Europe
about the process of integration and in lobbying for greater European unity.
