EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the UK European Communities Membership Referendum in 1975, we witness the fervor and enthusiasm of pro-Europe campaigners as they ride on the bonnet of a car leading the South Glamorgan campaign to Keep Britain in Europe. The image captures Colleen Terrans, an 18-year-old young woman, and Dawn Miller, aged 21, proudly displaying their support for continued membership of the European Economic Community. The date is Saturday, May 31st, just days before the historic referendum held on June 5th. As they drive through Cardiff's streets adorned with flags representing both Wales (the red dragon) and the United Kingdom (Union Jack), these passionate women symbolize a generation determined to shape their country's future. This snapshot encapsulates an era marked by intense campaigning efforts across Britain. With slogans like "remain" and "stay" supporters rallied together under one common goal: to maintain strong ties with Europe through membership in what was then known as the Common Market. As we delve into this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, it serves as a powerful reminder of how political decisions can unite individuals from all walks of life. These two Welsh women embody not only their nation's pride but also its desire for unity within a larger international community – values that continue to resonate today amidst ongoing discussions surrounding Brexit and its implications for British-European relations.
