The UK economy only exists courtesy of the US, in case this has escaped notice: (1) The City of London exists as essentially a money laundering exercise for the more tightly regulated US markets (2) BAE only gets arms deals with oil monarchies that the US permits petrodollars to recycle to. If you think the UK actually makes anything with a substantial independent market, you have not been doing your homework. The UK already paid much of the price for this in terms of independence - while in the EU! How long have you been using the word 'poodle' ? Probably since around Suez, 1956. Or maybe Mossadeq. So making it official will not necessarily be the economic catastrophe that parochial patriots seem to believe and removes one of two masters. - Shyaku
