Market Entry Would Change Great Britain
LONDON AP reports that joining the European Common Market would reshape life in Britain. Food costs could rise 10 to 14 percent over years, with beef and butter likely higher and grain raising livestock prices. Industrial opportunities would grow but British firms face competition in the 18 million consumer market. Devaluation, tax and immigration policy shifts, and equal pay rules could follow. If Britain stays out, the nation risks remaining an offshore island detached from a dynamic Europe.
