Description
Britain's economic relationship with the US is a complex and often contentious issue. Vassal State reveals the extent to which US corporations have come to dominate Britain's economy, shaping policy decisions and extracting significant profits. The book exposes how American business chiefs influence what we're paid, what we buy, and how we buy it, with US companies carving up Britain's economy and siphoning off enormous profits. Meanwhile, policymakers are often driven to suit the interests of American corporate overlords. Angus Hanton's research and interviews with key players shed light on why Britain has become a poor transatlantic relation, and what can be done to change it.
