Should the EU move towards a more integrated legal system with uniform civil and criminal laws across all member states?

Further integration of the legal systems would aim to streamline legal processes and ensure consistency in legal outcomes. Proponents argue it would facilitate business, mobility, and justice. However, critics are concerned about the erosion of national legal identities and practices.

No, national jurisdictions should retain a degree of sovereignty in terms of laws, however greater uniformity on transnational legal issues should be introduced, e.g. trafficking crimes; anti-money laundering, etc.

The EU should improve cooperation and set common standards in specific areas like serious cross-border crime, but member states should retain control over their own civil and criminal laws.

Yes probably. It’s good co-operation with the EU. I stand Pro-european but close friendship to hold them accountable. I stand for EU.

I think this has potential. For example, if someone committed a crime here in Ireland and they went to France, they should be able to arrest him and sent him back here. Other than that I'm not one hundred percent sure.
