"How on earth do you manage to conflate the two?"
Erm euro nation is now an ambiguous term thanks to the EU currency euro, the EU constantly referring to itself and europe and the easy deduction of the part of Europe which is desperate to attract more investment... the EU. Feel free to point out he was talking about Russia.
"Are you suggesting that no EU nation can allow entrepreneurs to enter without the blessing of the EU?"
How did you conflate that? Is it some special setting in a remoaners brain? The original comment was about swooping up the opportunity. Considering the EU's amusing play at taking away our banks and looking like childish idiots with little appeal and the French talking about taxing to a halt high frequency trading, as well as their dictating rules (mocked aplenty for dictating the shape of a banana and dictating the contents of 'jam') I cant imagine them swooping in, can you?
"That would be a bit strange, given that the UK loves its dodgy Tier 1 Invester scheme whereby extremely wealthy people from anywhere in the world can buy a foot in the door and get a passport within as little as two years."
We really do invite investment dont we. Well pointed out.
