        Is it possible to join one without the other? Can you join the EU, for example, without EEC membership?

            So they are defacto the same? And probably Maggie’s views on it would have been more nuanced than you first suggested? Shed like the EEC bits not the others?

              I imagine she would have supported the economic union (EFTA/EEA etc) but she opposed the political union and any legislation related to it in the House of Lords, so I think it’s a stretch to say she’d have been a supporter of Remain.

                Who knows 🧐? I said her views on the EU rather than leave remain being more nuanced than you suggested originally which from your replies seems to back that idea up.

                Anyway old biddy’s dead so we’ll never know 😂
