ORAC,

​​​​​​"Downing Street said the UK would explore options to build its own Global Navigation Satellite system"

Once again, this nonsense completely ignores the fact that the entire UK satellite design, engineering and manufacturing industry is foreign owned, mainly by EU nations, and post Brexit the work will be moving from the UK to Spain, France and Germany. The UK control centre is already moving from Swanwick to Spain.
