Which will tank our economy, depress exports and substantially reduce GDP, thus reducing Defence expenditure even further, great thinking...
pr00ne,

You'll excuse me I'm sure, if I make the presumption that you lean to the left. That is politically rather than physically, but when did the left take to the idea of embracing the common market?

I do recall the Labour Party announcing at the 1980 Party Conference, among all the stuff about unilateral disarmament etc, that they would pull the UK out of the common market. They weren't fixing to precede this with a referendum either. One thing you can say for David Cameron and the Tories generally, is they do, at least on this occasion, manage to standby their word!

What was it that Gordon Brown promised again????
