Should the number of countries in the European Union be reduced to 15?

It does not work now it costs vast sums and each country loses a little more democracy with each new law

No, this is not relevant to the UK now we are not a member but I would rather the EU was simply a free trade agreement that we were a member of.

I think we should get rid of the European Union as it’s more of a dictatorship and that’s what we fought so hard against and many people lost their lives.

Too many countries with different economic potential mean that detailed solutions to challenges are often not possible to develop

I would rather make the Untied Nations have more real authority, so any and all nations which abide by human rights can share in the protection, trade, and open borders with each other.

EU expansion should be limited so as to ensure it remains democratic and not too financially burdened

No, but all member states need to have the ability to meet stand alone financial independence before being allowed to join.

NO the EU has thrived in the 21st century due to expansion into post-communist states if members are expelled and expansion banned the EU will suffer economically and internationally as countries expelled will seek closer ties with Russia and/or China

No, any country should be allowed into the EU assuming that they uphold the basic values and contribute their fair share

Yes and no. This is hard. I don't like any block trying to compete to be the wealthiest and best - it's a toxic game. At the same time, it can be good for countries to work together so closely, as long as it's for the welfare of the citizens and NOT about being a major power.

Yes. It should be left to the 10-20 top economic powers throughout Europe strictly.

The more the merrier

No but i favour eu reform

The European Union can do what it wants.

I think it should be easier to remove countries that violate EU law like Poland and Hungary.

No - promote further membership, but only if Copenhagen criteria is met, and there is a clear majority who want membership

Yes until the EU becomes democratically elected beaurocrats

It Should be abolished full stop

I am more in favour of european economic relationships whilst not being controlled centrally and member states have their own say but for security purposes stick together

Yes, and the European Union should abolish its parliament and reform into a solely democratic alliance

not up to us

Doesn’t affect me

Doesn’t matter to me.

No, and an ever-closer union leading to a United States of Europe should welcome any European nation which meets the democratic, economic and human rights requirements of integration - if a 2/3 majority of citizens vote to join.

Whoever wants to join the EU should be allowed to join and whoever wants to leave the EU should be allowed to leave

Uninterested

Completely abolish the EU

The eu should be abolished

No opinion, a matter for member countries of the EU.

It depends if the country wants to be independent.

No but countries should be Free to leave the European Union just like Britain did

Yes, but other groups can be created under an EU umbrella providing local autonomy but with general cooperation and guidelines.

Depends on what the people of that country want. Let them vote like England did.

No, but the European Union needs to be drastically reformed

EU membership should be open to any European country.

No, any liberal democracy in Europe who wishes to join the EU should be allowed

There should be a higher bar for entry, but other countries support them to become more economically viable.

No, but member countries should have to meet strict standards in terms of human rights and quality of life provided to its citizens and maintain them.

No but I would prefer to abolish the European Union.

All countries in the continent of Europe should be part of the EU, just like all countries in the continent of Africa are part of the AU (African Union)

The UK should rejoin the EU

No longer our concern

Its a EU issue

The EU should be dissolved

Don’t really care

Why do I care

No but all countries should be financially secure by themselves and not reliant on others and should have comparable contributions

Don’t know. All should have a say but be held equally accountable and be financially self dependent

No, There needs to be reformes to the current union where candidates are elected and decisions can be made more fairly.

Do what they want

There should be a reduction because the EU only cares about western and Eastern European countries not Southern

Not up to me, it is up to the individual countries.

No, countries should be free to join and leave the EU when they want to.

there should be no EU

It's a dead duck and should be abolished

The eu needs a change other than dismantling it.

No, and that's a really vague question. What countries are you trying to remove?

there should be NO eu

The EU should be abolished all together.

This is best left up to the other countries of the European Union

No, but it should remove countries with authoritarian governments

This depends on who the 15 remaining members are

I do not understand enough to comment

The A8 should never have been allowed to join

I'm fine as long as we leave

No just let whoever wants to be in it be in it

Better to abolish, but no reason to reduce the number under the current system

Not my problem any more.

No. but I would prefer to abolish the European Union

The European Union starting as the trade association it was, should only accept countries that after a number of tests can afford to and can continually afford to pay in and contribute to the EU fairly. When it has been proven that they arn't pulling their weight, they should be dropped from the union, keeping it fair on other countries involved.

We've left the EU. It's none of our business.

Keep the current amount

The UK should take no action on internal EU political decisions.

It should stay the same for now

No, the problem is not the EU but what the EU is currently focus on, which is not the welfare of its citizens

The UK is out of the EU anyway. Personally, I hope the EU collapses or is abolished.

No, but no new countries should join, the EU should focus on integration rather than expansion.

All countries and people deserve a chance at a batter life and being able to develop and be able to provide for their citizens in a safe and free country

Yes, abolish the EU and replace it with a more effective organisation.

NO, the current number should stay the same

No, the European Union should be abolished altogether

I’m indifferent

No, but the EU should be reformed.

No, but Turkey has no business joining as it is not a European nation

I would make an economic union with opt outs and human rights protections, with internal blocks such as a balkan or western europe one.

Let EU members decide.

No, but the EU needs reform.

Yes. But powerful veto options that prevent progress should be overhauled

Several countries have not benefited from their membership. Also they are loosing their cultural identity

No and abolish the European union

The current number of members should stay the same

No, but no more countries should be allowed to join

That is a matter for the countries within the EU, not the uk

No, and it should be increased to every country in Europe

Yes but Turkey should be omitted and additional measures should be taken to ensure fair democracy within member states.

A federalised Europe

We left, none of our business

Unfortunately, at this moment my client is suffering from a profound ability to not care.

EU can do what they want now. Would have liked to remain but the uk is a democracy and we are now unfortunately out
