The European Union: In or Out is a British television debate that was first broadcast on BBC Two on 2 April 2014.[1] The hour-long live debate between Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage was hosted by David Dimbleby.[2] Questions came from the audience, with an equal number of people for and against British membership of the European Union. A radio debate between Clegg and Farage on LBC, hosted by Nick Ferrari, was broadcast one week before the televised debate.[3][4][5][6]
The debate was broadcast ahead of the European Parliament election, 2014 and was set across the backdrop of a proposed referendum on United Kingdom membership of the European Union. [7]
