The Great Brexit Swindle

"It wasn't Brussels that harmed the British public in the wake of the global financial crisis.... Through regulatory opt-outs, Britain ensured that Brussels would have no power over the UK economy. Rather, it was the British government's dedication to an economic policy called neoliberalism which has so harmed working people. If anything, the bureaucratic nature of the European Union slowed the workings of neoliberalism. That's why a powerful sector of the UK's policymaking elite want out." (from the preface)In this urgent book, T. J. Coles uncovers the forces that wish to uncouple Britain from the European Union. Allied to an expanding core of free-market fanatics in the Conservative party is a powerful group of globalists and financial traders. Their political ideology is neoliberalism--a worldwide agenda that seeks to deregulate markets and maximize profits for global elites at the expense of working people. The effect is an internationally growing gap between rich and poor.
