The UK could join the EEA or the EFTA along with Iceland, Norway and Lichtenstein. Switzerland would also get to have more negotiatiating power with the UK in the EFTA.
- icebraining 8y agoYou write as if that was just a matter of filling out a form. The UK could join if the existing members - and that includes the EU member states - allow them to do so. And why would they?
- petre 8y agoBecause it would benefit everyone. The UK was an EFTA founding state and a former member between 1960 and 1973, before they joined the EU. The EFTA does not include the EU member states. The EEA includes both the EU member states and the EFTA states with the exception of Switzerland. http://www.efta.int/About-EFTA/Frequently-asked-questions-EFTA-EEA-EFTA-membership-and-Brexit-328676 http://www.efta.int/About-EFTA/Frequently-asked-questions-EF...
