Mr Prisoner its called "Free Trade" and why should it not be the way forward? The default for trade should be to free trade in my opinion, its basic economics (David Ricardo). It increases the whole cake for everyone because nations concentrate on producing what they are specialists in and use that revenue to buy products from overseas that they are non specialist in. There will be some exceptions say when countries start subsidise local producers and so do not act fairly. Often political considerations intervere with free trade say when Governements subsidise their farmers and then even worse dump food at low prices in the world market they have bought at high prices in their own internal market.Mr Wurzel seems to think that because one particular electrical item can be imported easily everything else should be the same. The world does not work like that.
For the UK SEM membership would give access without the disavantages (to some of us) of full EU social and political integration.
