Aren't we already part of the world market? The shelves are full of electronic goods from Asia, guitars and movies from the US, flowers grown in Africa, lamb from New Zealand, etc..
I don't feel like I'm missing out on hormone filled Brazilian beef fed on glyphosphate soaked GM soya beans or chlorinated Yanqui chicken.
If we stop importing from our near neighbours and fill up the shortfall with stuff from further afield then what will that do for prices of basic goods, not to mention their carbon footprint?
