The EEA Agreement may have its small stains and deficiencies, but has proven remarkably robust. Today, 30 years after its entry into force, it continues to serve the interests of more than 450 million people across 30 countries ๐ช๐บ๐ณ๐ด๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฑ๐ฎ #EuropeanEconomicArea #EEA30
Good meeting in the EEA Joint Committee today โ the first in the 30th anniversary year of the EEA Agreement, with 85 legal acts incorporated and interesting discussions on enlargement. Together we continue to build a better Europe for citizens and businesses ๐ณ๐ด๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ช๐บ #EEA30
Theresa May 5. Because of the economic tragedy that Brexit inflicts on us, the jobs are leaving here and going to the EU27/EEA30. EU citizens will still have the right to Free Movement in the 30 countries where the jobs are.
British people lose the right to Free Movement in 30 countries.
Sharon Sloan Michael M. ๐จ๐ญ๐ณ๐ด๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ง/๐จ๐พ John Redwood This is all because of the Non Tariff Barriers. Certain goods cannot go into the EU27/EEA30 without proper documentation/certification such as this one: ec.europa.eu/info/sites/infโฆ. They'll have to make the whole of N Wales a lorry park - there's no room at Holyhead either
The #EEA , extending the single market to Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, has been a remarkable success story since its inception in 1994.

Rob Redhead @RichardAENorth The Leave Alliance Michael M. ๐จ๐ญ๐ณ๐ด๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ง/๐จ๐พ Well one thing is for sure. I am not going to let GeorgeEusticeMP get away with suggesting the problem lies with the EU27 (or EEA30). It lies squarely with the Conservative Govt who thought EEA=EU (it doesn't) & with great self-harm decided to leave the SM = Non Tariff Barriers
Euthanise The EU Ted Page #FBPE #RejoinEU Lou Liz Webster Have you taken a closer look at those non-EU countries? With only a few exceptions, they're not doing great.
The vast majority of them are poor and underdeveloped, and you'd be hard pressed to make a list of 27/30 non-EU/EEA countries that come close to rivaling the EU27/EEA30.
