The single market: time for a new trading relationship for Britain and the EU

Director of Global Vision, Ruth Lea, argues that trade would continue to thrive between the UK and the rest of the European Union if Britain negotiated a looser relationship with the EU, outside the single market.

Global Vision is a non-partisan campaign group that believes Britain needs to negotiate a looser, more modern relationship with the EU to reflect the rapidly changing world of the 21st century. The new relationship should be based on trade and cooperation, whilst opting out of political and economic union.
