Obviously, we are very unlikely to be in the EU for much longer so, from a business perspective, working for an international company, selling to other international companies, being in a customs union and single market would be ideal. Hopefully having some say in those would be great! Doing business with non-EU/EEA countries is a massive pain.

I can live with that. I'd be content to remain in the EU outside of their folly, and to constantly be the picador that annoys the hell out of Brussels.
