We don't need it at all.
I can't think of anything the EU have that we need.

Do they have a GCHQ?
Do they have a Fylingdales?
Do they have a Five Eyes?
Do they have a Rolls Royce?

And we have access to ground station sites (that they also need for their system) through our Commonwealth links.

Do you ever bother to read your articles before you post them ?

Number 1 in your list, Airbus hasn't made anything yet, its an aspiration. If Galileo is anything to go by it will be another 26 years before anything is ready, and that's with the UK helping

Do you read your clippings before placing them? It is about a dream to capture 10% by 2030.
Just admit that your stated half of all satellites build in the UK was, well, wrong if not to say a l₩₩

Re: Netherlands "NethExit" ?

If I had to put a bet on who would leave next, I'd put a big punt on Spain.

I think they're closer to disaster, if they stay in, than many of the ones mentioned earlier.
