Angelo, there's going to have to be some sort of compromise along the line.
Would you feel ok with one in which the UK:
- Retains the right to deport people who can't justify that they can support themselves after an initial 3-months' stay?
- Retains border control - no Schengen, but retain fast international cooperation in identifying any potential dodgy people ASAP?
- Retains the rights of UK citizens to move within Europe, whether to retire, to study, work or live with their loved one?
- Ensures that an international court can defend the UK in the event of an international dispute?
- Has relatively hassle-free agreements with 60+ countries?
- Has rules in place for UK businesses that enable them to trade hassle-free?
- Is able to maintain health and safety standards, and environmental ones, in which the UK played a role in shaping?
- Would be able to continue to have access to major databases related to security and policing?
