Default Can we do a norway and find a middle way?

Can we do a norway , find a third way? Withdraw from the monstrous 60,000 word EU constitution, but stay a member of the european economic area and stay as a trading partner? They only abide by 21% of EU laws...Best of both words....Norway recently voted the best country in the world for quality fo life!!!.....Put your left foot in, right foot out, do the hokey cokey and turn about

This is where most of the celts of wales , ireland, scotland and cornwall came from...I almost got misty eyed listening to this one, it must be the onions in my bhajees making me cry lol

I can understand the attraction to becoming another Norway or Switzerland in terms of diplomatic neutrality/the facade of not getting involved with stuff like Syria, taking in more than our fair share of refugees, but I honestly believe the relationship with the US and the generally strong one with Germany/France etc. wouldn't result in such a drastic change on that front.

In terms of laws... yeah I can take them or leave them. I've heard a lot of rhetoric about the idea of "if we leave then our human rights are at jeopardy!" but the country you mentioned is part of the European Convention on Human Rights since it predates the EU

But it'd be just as lovely being Sweden or Denmark so I shall vote to stay

The MAIN thing we should take from the astute Norwegians is their WARNING to us about how corrupt the Establishment is when it comes to SCAREMONGERING us with propoganda and lies in order to frighten us into voting to 'Remain' in the 'cash cow'which is the corrupt EU:
