As a free market supporter it is horrifying that protectionist sentiments reign supreme in the UK. Hopefully this does not foreshadow the US congressional and presidential elections in November.
- tuna-piano 10y agoWas this vote protectionist? I assume they'll just setup free trade deals with Europe, similiar to what Norway and Switzerland already have?
- ekianjo 10y agoIt's actually a good thing for Free Market, since the UK will now be able to define what rules they want to play with, instead of having to rely on EU's bureaucrats.
