A referendum on British membership of the European Union will take place on June 23. It is a once in a generation decision that the Prime Minister has declared to be even more important than a general election. It’s a decision that’s not to be taken lightly: whether we vote to stay or leave, it will change the direction of our country for the next 30 years.

Campaigners on both sides of the debate are passionate in their argument. Many of us, however, will be undecided. This newspaper is proudly independent of political parties or affiliation to any particular interest. Our team of journalists are committed to bringing you comprehensive coverage from all sides in the run up to the vote. We hope it will help you make what is likely to be one of the most important decisions of your lifetime.
