The government of the UK disagrees with you. www.gov.uk/eu-eea#:~:text=Switzerland%20is%20not%20an%20EU,UK%20as%20other%20EEA%20nationals. "The EEA includes EU countries and also Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. It allows them to be part of the EU’s single market. Switzerland is not an EU or EEA member but is part of the single market. This means Swiss nationals have the same rights to live and work in the UK as other EEA nationals." This is my last post in this part of this forum. I am not prepared to educate those who refuse to be educated, nor use energy on something that doesn't matter, where all that matters is schoolboy ego. Amuse yourselves. None of it makes a difference. No one cares. And this government always tells the truth about the EU? Pull the other one The Single Market is owned and controlled by the EU so best you just accept their word on it. And as you've been told already, they say you are wrong ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/IP_22_7897 'The Single Market was established on 1 January 1993. It followed the signing of the Maastricht Treaty on 7 February 1992. Initially, 12 EU countries made up the Single Market: Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and the United Kingdom. Today, the Single Market comprises 27 Member States, as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, with Switzerland having partial access.'

Funny how Oracle ignored me even though I provided evidence on passporting that shows Switzerland to not have full participation in the rules of the Single Market.

It is getting hard to keep being polite on this point.

It is getting hard to keep being polite on this point. Not really if when you don't find any knowledge of any worth, you decide and announce that it isn't worth the effort to reply. The chasm of stubborn ignorance in some quarters is too deep and wide. brexitlegalguide.co.uk/eu-switzerland/#:~:text=Bilateral%20Agreements,-Switzerland%20does%20not&text=Switzerland%20replicates%20EU%20financial%20services,of%20EU%20legislation%20and%20obligations. Instead of throwing its rattle out of the pram, the UK should have pursued the Swiss model once suggested in Brexit negotiations. Swiss finance has always been secret and sovereign. Yet the EU accommodates it. In fact the UK used to hold the most number of opt outs and an argument could be made that the UK wasn't fully paid up member of the single market either...literally. We got membership relatively cheaply as well as individually. Like not using the euro. Anyway, the energy necessary to go over cold ashes should be better spent trying to find some still warm embers.

I know. The question has been in and out of discussion since before 2016. However since the UK profited hugely from passporting, why on earth would it go with a deal like a country that doesn't have that possibility?
Oh wait!! It did!!

If you know why did you suggest a course of action that had already been rejected by the EU?

“The EU has always supported free trade"It has? - since when?. Quite My memories of the EU are of sky high prices for butter paid by EU members in order that the excess can be used to give black africans cholesterol problems from the huge volumes dumped there Etc
