      It always annoys me when people are like “changing your mind now?”, like Rachel Reeves and Starmer weren’t massive remainers, campaigned to stay in the EU during the referendum, and built their last election campaign off closer alignment with Europe.

      No shit. So do something about it, not like you’re without power. And you have Labour, Lib Dem and SNP MPs who will all support closer union. Most tepid government of my lifetime, and I remember Major’s of the 90s

      This shouldn’t be controversial. At all. And it should be the job of every government to make course corrections if a previous decision was later found to have been detrimental to the nation. Those who voted to leave were misled by politicians who saw the referendum as an opportunity to advance their careers, and far too many of those who voted to remain were complacent.

      It is bad for both sides, but I sadly doubt we will see Britain back any time soon.

      Saying this stuff while her government rules out returning to the single market/customs union is like a hamster spinning in the wheel. The TCA is already as comprehensive as it can get when it comes to free trade agreements, whatever is outside the scope of being in the common market like Switzerland or Norway is going to be very marginal.

      Labour should grow a pair and do like the Lib Dems/Greens advocating a return to the EU or at least the single market. Only absolute retards are still defending Brexit in 2026 like Labour are doing, and those people are overwhelming Tory/Reform voters they have basically no chance of attracting. They’re already at record low in the polls or close to that anyway so they have little to lose

      Definitely go for closer alignment because Brexit has been an economic disaster. Why not call a referendum?

      Everybody now knows that Brexit is an utter failure and things have gotten dramatically worse for UK citizens. So why don’t they kick Farage and his ilk to the curb and reverse course ?

      I don’t understand what was the plan around brexit. Even I could see at the time that it wouldn’t have many benefits. Brits were talking about immigration and blue passports then, but why was that considered relevant to EU membership?

      I dont understand what is the point of these stayers advocating about closer EU ties. People need education not slogans or opinions.
      Maybe just maybe do a large governmental educational project to inform and educate your population about EU?
      „i know its a wild crazy idea“

      Im EU citizen if UK population would be pro rejoining 60 to 40 i would say that is not enough! After being in EU and even after leaving the EU with all the negatives its only 60 to 40? thank you NOOOOO

      Give me 80% then well talk.

      **Poland – 77% yes (2003)**
      **Czech Republic – 77% yes (2003)**
      **Hungary – 84% yes (2003)**
      **Slovakia 93% yes** **(2003)**

      As far as I remember, the Brexit decision was supported most of all in England. 

      And I’m not sure that in five years the English won’t say, „Oh, I don’t like the EU again-  they can go fuck themselves!“
       Especially since Farage isn’t popular for nothing. 

      So I’d wait a good ten years before even starting to listen to whether Britain is actually ready for closer ties with the EU than it has now.

      Then give us another fucking vote.

      If people still want to stay out the EU? Okay. Well, then we do that.

      And if people DON’T and want to get back into the EU? Bang. There’s your justification, incentive and reason to do so.

      Years of pontificating because you KNOW what the answer’s gonna be and you’re just too scared to be seen to give people the option.

      Are we really going to have to wait another 20+ years before we get the choice again?
