even if collaboration is harder, we can still do it. Indeed, perhaps itll crystallise where/what we really want or need to collaborate on.
No we can’t. We can no longer collaborate on Galileo because we will not be a member of the EU. One country pressed really hard to prevent non EU members from having access to the security sensitive aspects of Galileo - guess who that was?
So May now wants to spend £3-5 billion creating our own Galileo (plus the £1 billion per annum running costs), except bandwidth constraints now mean we’ll need to go begging to the US, Russia, India, China, Japan.
That “Brexit Bonus” is going to have to stretch a long, long, long way at this rate.
