Re: EU Constitution embarrassing the UK (none / 1)

In fact, it's about time the rules for enhanced cooperation got relaxed and countries stopped feeling guilty about pushing for them.

I don't know.

It would be much better if we could all move forward together. I have this horrible vision of multiple overlapping enhanced cooperation areas which would be as likely to weaken as strengthen the EU.

The enhanced cooperations that visibly worked would attract new members, like the Euro.

Some countries are in all enhanced cooperations. Unsurprisingly, they are the real core, and include France, Germany, Spain, Italy and quite a few others.

Impossible to do.

Enlargement went too fast, starting in 1973.
