I back the US on this one. At a time UK workers are being pushed out of work by foreign companies hiring staff from their own country instead of ours (when they're building OUR infrastructure!!!!!!!!), we need more, not less, "protectionism".

Getting UK people to buy UK produced goods only hurts the CEOs of the big companies. I always buy British where I can.

What the Government and the EU are worried about is losing money from their big corporates that pay them big money. Buying from the little guy from each respective country only hurts the big guy. It's actually a good thing.

Buy from me, I don't go on the dole. Buy from the Big Guy, and you're just helping his bottom line whilst I go bust. See the difference?

Best regards,
Vulcan.
