What factors have helped the united kingdom become a leading memeber of the European union?
The United Kingdom is the sixth largest economy in the world and a major financial contributor to the E.U. On 23 June 2016, the UK had a referendum and voted to leave the EU.

For the moment if Scotland stays in Great Britain, its good for the union, Whether to stay the people of Scotland will decide. Scotland has a good and stable economy and petrol is a big factor. Before joining EU again, it has understand with the leaders inside Scotland, and then with England, Wales and N. Ireland. It will be a hard process. But none knows!

yes
How much did issues of immigration influence UK voters to want out of the European Union EU and explain why EU countries feel threatened by mass immigrations?
A lot. Just listening to the news in the UK you hear: "There are too many of them", "They're nicking our jobs" etc. There is not a lot of space in most EU countries, and not enough resources to cope with migration that could potentially be millions of people. That is why we voted Leave on the 23rd June.
How does the EU effect people in the UK?
Effectively much legislation now comes via the EU - as EU laws should apply to all member states. The UK has some exemptions. Our passport system is not the same as all of the EU and we have not yet adopted the Euro as a currency. EU legislation allows all EU citizens free travel throughout the EU. On a side note many in the UK want to leave the EU and consider it a pain in the neck!
How could trade deals be affected by the UK's decisions to leave the European Union EU?
Enormously! Many trade deals the EU have made include the UK. As and when the UK leaves the EU most of these will have to be re-negotiated, not only with the UK, but in many cases, with the EU. This can take many years to finalise. In addition teh Uk currently is the largest importer of EU country products and services. The UKs leaving will leave a massive trade and financial trade hole in the economy . Between 1999 and 2014, goods imported by the UK from the EU have risen by 4.9% per year on average, compared to exports which have risen by 2.5% per year, causing the UK's trade in goods deficit with the EU to rise to £77.0 billion. The UKs leaving is therefore going to be felt across the EU if a trade agreement is not tabled and accepted by the UK before Article 50 is effected.
