I believe that the State (whether it be national or a group of nations working together) should intervene to stop capitalist excesses - and uphold workers & consumer rights : step on anti-competitive carving up of markets : uphold standards in medicines : invest in infrastructure projects : promote and help finance cultural activities - which is why I am opposed to the hard right, ultra-libéral forces who have been pushing for Brexit for so long. Their success would undermine so much of what we on the left, and in workers movements across Europe have fought for and achieved.
I’d also recommend that you read this - A long article - but worth reading. It blows to pieces the casual optimism of the Brexiteers and addresses some VERY hard truths.
