The world and its economies become less and less predictable the faster technology advances and so, for me, it's political considerations that matter. I don't want political integration with continental Europe. We have separate languages and separate traditions, which are valuable. The English Channel (a 20 mile wide body of sea) gave England the scope to develop more freedoms together with a unique outlook, which are now under threat. The rest of the world loses out too if they disappear.
- napworth 10y ago> unique outlook I don't believe you. England's outlook is one of the most dismal I have seen from all the countries in the world.
- hardlianotion 10y agoI like England. What is it about the country and its 50 million inhabitants distinguish it in such a dismal way from other countries?
- wapapaloobop 10y agoOne can see differences in specific laws and legal traditions. But it's the outlook (inexplicit conception of freedom) that develops first and which is responsible for further progress. It's not possible to appreciate in depth the different outlooks of different national cultures. If it were then they wouldn't be as precious as they are.
