When Britain voted to leave the European Union in June 2016 it felt to many observers that the bloc’s economic and political foundations were crumbling before their eyes.

The world’s fifth-largest economy and the EU’s dominant financial centre had decided to quit just as the 2015 immigration crisis provided fresh impetus to populist politicians the length and breadth of the continent.
