The future of Defence Industry in the EU: How the UK Could be Associated with Capacity Building

To enable the United Kingdom to take part in programmes on procurement, a new institutional framework is needed—potentially inspired by the EU–Switzerland committee model “Europe” is a strange mixture of its states operating in various combinations, including but not limited to the European Union. Third countries have to engage with that messy reality. They - and “Brussels” – may wish it were different, and it may change over time, but in an emergency, they should find ways to make it work as it is

Interesting paper by Sir Julian King ⤵️

Two ways to go:

1/ a 🇬🇧-🇪🇺 security agreement, Canada-like, to be negotiated,

or 2/ the UK applying to the 🇪🇺SM, which could be quickly done.

UK’s choice.

It can be done in parallel with military deployment.

Let’s hurry up !

Europe has to pay more for its own defence.

One debate is whether they should "Buy European" weapons or buy them from America or other allies.

One really BAD statistic is polluting the debate: that the EU buys 80% of its weapons from overseas. Ursula von der Leyen repeated it today. It's wrong. 🧵

🚨NEW RESEARCH🚨

Closer ties with the EU could deliver growth of up to 2.2%.

Clawing back up to half of the damage caused by Brexit.

Delivering double the impact of a UK-US trade deal, according to the govt's own analysis.

And all within Starmer's red lines.

There are more than a million British people with Pakistani heritage in the UK.

For the Shadow Home Secretary to suggest they have an "alien" and "medieval" culture and to smear them by association with the crimes of a tiny minority, is the politics of the far-right gutter.

#Hommage Jacques Delors nous quittait il y a un an. Toutes les équipes des instituts de Paris, Berlin et Bruxelles lui rendent hommage avec émotion et reconnaissance.

Son souvenir et ses idéaux continueront à inspirer notre engagement en faveur de l’unité des Européens.

Times headline 20/12 “Budget has caused economy to stagnate, Bank of England says”; article says Bank warned economy is stagnating after the budget. No source provided for either statement. Neither propter nor post hoc. Poor journalism.

Can you imagine the political meltdown the right wing would be having right now if this was a leftwing billionaire who bought Twitter and was actively campaigning for the left?

Remembered Obama’s … “back of the queue” comment and the meltdown over foreign interference? … it’s dead quiet now ….
