Surely this should be below the line.

Yes, I think it's sad, not least because I really like the ZTT. Bring back import controls at least on imports from countries outside the EC where workers are exploited! If one can embargo Cuba or Iraq for political reasons, why not the world of sweated labour?

However this is a case which might not have happened were it not for EC bans on subsidies.

The real strike merchants were always Ford's Dagenham plant, not Austin/Morris/Rover etc.
