Not “If Possible”, But By Design

Like the abolition of VAT on domestic electricity, Buy British is a Brexit benefit that would have been illegal if we had still been in the European Union. Of course, there does have to be British to Buy.

If the Conservatives or, less probably, Reform UK objected to this, then they should rightly be accused of valuing only the bottom line, and then only to a very superficial degree, rather than national sovereignty in general and national security in particular.

In other words, they should be told to join the party of the liberal, Thatcherite, pro-EU South, as shown by the maps of parliamentary seats held and of local authorities controlled. Last night on Newsnight, Nick Clegg made perfectly clear the lay of the land.
