I understand that the pound would be an absolute moral need for the UK, but for me It would be the first thing that would be demanded to drop. A UK in eurozone would be key to the strength of the Euro.

If the UK is smart the fighting ring would be the London City privileges. That’s where money is.

But ultimately I do agree that they would keep some small things but to the eyes of the other members, they must be “punished” in all the other important areas just to keep the flock together.

Just to clarify for anyone reading: these are opinions, not facts.

They would absolutely get allowed back. They were one of the most important economic and military powers in the EU.

But you are absolutely right in the whole “deal” thing. No pound, yes Schengen, no national exceptions, no fishing great deals and of course, EU military is a must. No more veto to the joint military for sure.

After that is clear, they would be allowed back for sure. Maybe they can keep the password as a gesture.

This is just sideways related, but considering how difficult is making anything because of the word “ITAR” it is absolutely normal EU is trying to go away as fast as possible from EEUU tech and companies and is regulating their behaviour here.
