Let’s say Ireland started giving citizenship to other EU citizens who wanted to live and work in the UK, bypassing our immigration controls. Would you be happy?
Except it is not the benefit of EU membership without cost. Funny how remainers keep going on about that but...

A free trade deal would not include any development (or any other) grants or confer any UK citizen or EU citizen any exclusive rights. so no, nowhere near EU membership without the costs.
