Rebuild British Manufacturing — A Strategy for Revival
JUST launched is this latest pamphlet from Rebuild Britain, an organisation which emerged from Trades Unionist Against the EU (TUAEU) and which was a key element of the Leave campaign.

Yes, this is very broad brush, but the pamphlet records in well-researched detail the facts of Britain’s savage manufacturing decline during recent decades, and the causes — proposing a series of radical measures to promote sustainable manufacturing revival.
