Every day in the UK crucial decisions are made based on official statistics.

During the next month people will be voting for the UK to either stay in or leave the European Union.

To inform the public we have put together an update to our UK Perspectives series, including three extra articles with a specific EU focus. These articles aim to assist people’s understanding of the issues by providing an unbiased overview of our data.

The topics covered by the updates to our UK Perspectives series are: the economy, housing, population, personal and household finances, public services, labour market, energy, travel and European comparisons. The three new articles cover the UK contribution to the EU budget, UK trade and migration.

We hope you enjoy the series – please email us at better.info@ons.gov.uk with any feedback.
