Summary
Britain's Brexit voters are right. They have been shamefully neglected. But the answer is to change Britain, not to leave Europe. This book sets out how we can radically improve the lives of people and communities shut out from prosperity.
The EU, despite its frailties and strains, is a success story.
The advantages of leaving are illusory: no gains in trade from deals with protectionist China, and the United States can compensate for what is being lost in Europe. Britain is weakening a pillar of the world's diplomatic and trade order at the same time as it's weakening itself - an act of self-harm, especially when so many countries are retreating from democracy, free trade and progressive values.
In Saving Britain Will Hutton and Andrew Adonis set out a bold plan to transform Britain and fight for Europe as a force for good at home and abroad.

To understand the U.K. future options this is a vital read
The authors look at the causes of Brexit including lax immigration control that could have been and still can be applied within the EU, the scandal of the current government of removing support grants for areas of high immigration and of course the London centric highly centralised non federal U.K. that has let the North collapse while the south prospers.
It also looks at how the U.K. could transform through stakeholder capitalism. Rather than right wing control or abolish to compete the dream of neo Thatcherisum were its a dog eat hog world for everyone except those with capital and wealth.

By Britain's genius economist & great writer
The way forward for Britain's people and economy by someone who has spent a lifetime examining the issue and writing about it brilliantly. It's understandable to people who have never been near academia and passionately delivered. A tonic for those people fed up with the UK's dismal failing ways and mega missed opportunities, as economic decline gets increasingly baked in.
In case Hutton is misunderstood, he is not advocating socialism, but co-operative capitalism. A mixed economy with an active Industrial policy to include free enterprise with a human face and public good works.
