What I mean is that, as you have discussed, there are certain 'baseline' working conditions mandated by the EU.
I argued that these were not good enough to actually guarantee acceptable working conditions in their member states.
If the argument that we need to stay in the EU to protect workers' rights is going to be viable, then that's going to need change pushed at EU level to extend the protections beyond where they are now. That change is unlikely to be supported by economic liberals.
