Depends what you mean by EU. Within the EU, the theory is free
circulation of goods and people. I can go live and work in any EU
country, I would pay tax in that country having filled in the
appropriate paperwork.
Any permanent resident of an EU member state can simply turn up to the
UK to live and, optionally, work. To work, they'll need to apply for an
NI number and they'll be put on emergency tax until they're allocated a
tax code.
