In which Holly and Alannah discuss the importance of EU law, with a particular economic focus. 

Holly recounts the background of the European Union and gives an account of Free Movement of Goods in the EU with a focus on Public Security in her chosen case [Campus Oil Ltd and Others v Minister for industry and Energy and Others (Case 72/83)].  

Alannah untangles Competition Law, specifically State Aid and beneficial tax regimes in the inauspiciously named 'Apple case' [Apple Sales International and Apple Operations Europe v Commission (Case T-892/16)].   

Also featured is the inveterate irreverent exchanges on various topics such as the prospect of a Legally Bland stamp,  hypothetical Irexit and the potential goldmine that is the hoverboard market.
