      How would you negotiate around UK’s exceptionalism interfering with the work of EU institutions? Last time they got all the opt outs to unblock progress for everyone else.

      The compromise here would be the UK joining the EEA on the same terms as Norway, and see if Brits are willing to actually follow the rules for at least a decade before they got a vote on them again.

        Fair point.

        I also think they should have to scrap the pound, to really integrate with the EU and to minimise the risk of another brexit. But you are right, baby steps!
