In a week’s time we will know whether Britain will leave or remain. The course of British politics will be set, possibly for a generation.
Following our successful referendum debate last week, we asked our four speakers to present their arguments for Leave or Remain to low income Britain. These exclusive and compelling opinion pieces put forward their case on the issues that matter to voters in our poorest towns.
Former Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, Iain Duncan Smith MP and Minister of State for Energy, Andrea Leadsom MP make the case for Leave.
Former Home Secretary, Charles Clarke and Shadow Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, Owen Smith MP make the case for Remain.

According to YouGov’s latest poll on EU referendum voting intentions, more than 2.3 million voters in the bottom three socio-economic groups are yet to make up their minds.
The Centre for Social Justice is neutral on Leave or Remain but we're not neutral on poverty.
