While I agree with your opinion of British diffidence in terms of participating fully in the EU, I don’t think it’s fair to characterise the British Government as unique in this. Most EU member states take a very pick-and-choose approach to EU legislation - for instance many did not fully allow immigration from the new member states for years after they joined.
