I'm not up on European (and British) politics....at your level. It appears to me that "big" ventures require "big" wallets, both at the private or the public levels. Smaller or less developed countries and economies just cannot do the "big-ticket" items... the big factories or the big research ventures....I cannot see an "isolationist" Britain "going it alone" in this day and age. In this sense, the Tories' vision is anachronistic, to say the least, (it appears to me) it cannot "work"...
The key issue is immigration in this fantasy and stopping the Eastern and Southern Europeans 'taking our houses and jobs'. / Archytas Ah yes.....Racism and bigotry is "always" the Right-wingers' preferred "ally".....
