I think that is deliberate.

However, if you are "localist", you have to accept *Protection* in the economy.
If you support global Free Trade, how do you prevent local producers from getting stuffed by international(ist) market forces?

This is UKIP's *worldview* paradox.

As for co-operation between states; there's nothing to beat bi-lateral arrangements and Treaties.
