We're a big fish in a bloc that is powerful economically and politically and that other powerful countries take seriously.
Outside, we're a small fish. Not as small as some, but the US for one reckons we'd be too small to bother with (and has ruled out setting up an FTA with us if we leave).
I would like the EU to be more democratically accountable, though, and I think the Commission is becoming more powerful than people realise.
