  ChatGPTYes, keep the EU bloc’s single market and its customs union

European Free Alliance’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

Yes, keep the EU bloc’s single market and its customs union

This answer aligns closely with the EFA's goals of ensuring the welfare of regions and minority groups within Europe. By supporting the UK and Northern Ireland's continued participation in the EU's single market and customs union, the EFA would be advocating for a solution that minimizes economic disruption and maintains open borders, which is crucial for many regions with strong economic ties to the EU. This stance would be consistent with their broader objectives of promoting regional autonomy and cohesion within Europe.

Strongly agree

Yes

The European Free Alliance (EFA) is a political group in the European Parliament that advocates for the rights of stateless nations, regions, and minority groups. Given their emphasis on regional autonomy and self-determination, they would likely support measures that maintain strong ties between the UK, including Northern Ireland, and the EU to protect the interests of regions and minority groups affected by Brexit. However, their support might not be absolute (hence not a full score of 5) as they might also respect the outcome of the Brexit referendum as an expression of self-determination.

Strongly disagree

No

The EFA's principles of advocating for regional autonomy and protecting minority rights suggest they would likely oppose any arrangement that could potentially harm the economic or social interests of regions within the UK, especially those like Northern Ireland which have complex political and social ties to the EU. Leaving the EU's customs area could exacerbate tensions and economic instability in such regions, contrary to the EFA's goals.

Very strongly disagree

No, this will prevent Britain from signing trade deals on its own

The EFA's commitment to protecting regional interests and ensuring the welfare of minority groups would make them strongly oppose any move that could isolate regions or hinder their economic prospects. Leaving the customs union to pursue independent trade deals might benefit the UK on a national level but could have detrimental effects on specific regions, especially those with fragile economies or those that benefit significantly from EU membership. The EFA would likely view this as contrary to their principles of solidarity and regional protection.
