    This is likely why we’re starting to hear about the tiered EU systems. To allow nations who may not be able to participate fully, to at least participate partly.

      Such a shame that we left before the new system. We could have used our influence to help build the tiers. A founding member of the “new” system, for the 21st century.

        Definitely. People were already discussing how membership could be tiered at that point, from the UK as well.
        Unfortunately, the people standing to make big money from the UK leaving the EU pushed it along, whipped up the people stuck in the last century that the only option was leave or go, and we ended up where we are.
