The UK is simply trying to divide the EU, by cosying up to some members.

Of course the UK has control of borders: they are not even in Shengen! Besides, only EU citizens are allowed to move around the EU.

It is unfortunate that the EU has allowed the UK to amass that much financial and intelligence clout, and something that I hope will be corrected in the near future, by distributing the financial center around the EU member states, and by building up a world class intelligence service.
