Hugo Dixon

Personally leaning towards the 'out' side, I remained curious to see how the 'in' could even be defended. I therefore picked up this short little book, and honestly wasn't disappointed. Blunt and straight to the point, with every single argument backed up by neat evidence, here's indeed a concise and praiseworthy stance for Britain to stay in.

Hugo Dixon, of course, acknowledges the many useless and wasteful aspects of the EU (the CAP, its regional policies, its overregulated bureaucracy, show more 'the travelling circus' that is the European Parliament etc.) but, he just sees it all as annoying features of an imperfect system that could be changed. More serious to him is in fact the cost of leaving, in terms of foreign policy, economics, business and finances and, also, the Constitutional crisis that a Brexit might cause. It wasn't enough to sway my opinion (political sovereignty seals the deal to me) but, at least his case is compelling enough to deserve attention.

Clearly put forward, in a word here's a book full of relevant points that have to be taken into account by any serious voter -whatever your side on the issue. show less
