The whole point of the EU was to allow a group of countries to trade without all of the tariffs and quotas that have to be paid if you trade with another country. In simple terms, it was easier and cheaper to get a group of countries together and all decide that they could trade freely between them. Without the EU the state of our economy would be completely different to what it is today. I know that now people in the EU can move freely between the member countries and so many people are against more immigrants as they thinks there's enough already. But what about the cheap labour they provide? Without them, so many businesses wouldn't be able to make enough money to keep trading. I am highly aware of the negatives that some of the laws bring but my point is that the positives greatly outweigh them in my opinion.
