Carrying on
Positive agenda for action yields concrete results; decision-making remains complex to grasp; capacity to deliver does not always match expectations.
Nothing but the single market
Decision-making may be easier to understand but capacity to act collectively is limited; issues of common concern often need to be solved bilaterally.
Those who want more do more
As in "Carrying on", a positive agenda for action at 27 yields results; some groups achieve more together in certain domains; decision-making becomes more complex.
Doing less more efficiently
Initial agreement on tasks to prioritise or give up is challenging; once in place, decision-making may be easier to understand; the EU acts quicker and more decisively where it has a greater role.
Doing much more together
Decision-making is faster and enforcement is stronger across the board; questions of accountability arise for some who feel that the EU has taken too much power away from the Member States.
