Many non-EU countries have a free trade agreement with the EU. China is flooding the EU with cheap steel among a range of other products that have closed down many EU industries. The myth that the EU is an EU beneficial trade zone is bullshit. The EU could tell China to buy more or we buy less, it doesn't. It could do this with many countries and doesn't.
The balance of power is held by small less wealthy nations. And that balance will tip further as new countries join. The only case to allow the CzechRepublic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, and a few more in is. Cheap Labour. They have nothing else to offer, their markets are tiny and if you look at their populations and compare them with the rich ones, you see one-way traffic or a few businessmen like me going the other way. I didn't need the EU to move here.
And did any of the former EU citizens get a vote on expanding the club? No way, we were told to suck it up.
