I thought the paper was deeply flawed.
The Free Movement of goods problem was obscure and at times non-
sensical.
Mopeds towing trailers?
The Institutuions question was pigeon-holed and gave students little
scope.
The essay in question 2 was over-elaborate.
Question three on equality/citizenship was vast and too time
consuming.
Direct effect had two many isolated parts and it was difficult not to
overlap advice.
I just hope the marking scheme isn't as unfair!
