Rejoining the EU: 55%
Current relationship: 29%
Looser relationship: 21%

So I watched this, of course I did. But even I - and followers know how obsessed with Brexit I am 🤡 - am bored with Johnson's "Leave/Remain dilemma" with the same old talking heads

10 yrs on, it would be good to see how the cause these people fought for has affected 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬, our pockets, businesses, the rights we all lost, whether people who believed in the promises they made think they got what they voted for (on immigration, cheaper food and the NHS to name but a few)

The next two weeks will see an avalanche of Brexit articles. In terms of the options going forward, they aren't serious if they don't recognise that people movement will be an element of any of them, including Customs Union. https://t.co/4LxDIizIZk

Brexit is going to be undone.
It’s inevitable that Britain will get her star back.

Ten years of a smaller economy, higher costs, lost opportunities, weaker influence, and diminished living standards have made the case overwhelming.

Public opinion has already shifted decisively, a clear majority now wants to rejoin. The only question left is how and when, not if.

Nearly 500,000 Russian citizens enjoyed European holidays last year.

Meanwhile, Ukrainians were dying on the battlefield.

It's time to end Schengen tourist visas for Russian tourists.

Holidays in the EU are a privilege, not a right for citizens of a country waging war on our continent.

Getting dreadful abuse from Reformorons. I'm sure I'm not the only person in the country that wants the truth about Farage's £5m.

The big story here is that as many as 32% of Reform voters want Freedom of Movement back! Wow.

A UK poll shows that a new Brexit referendum would reverse the vote that led to Britain’s departure from the European Union a decade ago

🚨 A major new Bloomberg feature examines the potential economic impact of significantly reversing Brexit either through full rejoin or deep single market/customs union alignment.

Key finding: Brexit has already reduced UK GDP by an estimated 4–8% (consistent with OBR, Bank of England and academic studies), mainly through lower EU trade, reduced investment and supply chain disruption.

Reversing or substantially rolling back Brexit could add 2–4% to GDP over time by removing barriers, restoring supply chains and boosting business confidence and investment.

Strongest gains would likely be in manufacturing, autos, food & drink, financial services and creative industries. Agriculture would regain access to CAP-style support and markets.

The economic case for deeper integration with Europe is getting stronger. Public opinion has already shifted (majorities now favour rejoining in most polls). The question is whether politicians will catch up.

[Joni Askola @joni_askola]

Brexit stands as one of the most disastrous self-inflicted wounds in modern political history, engineered by a toxic mix of traitors and fools.

It leaves both the United Kingdom and Europe profoundly less safe while serving the strategic interests of global rivals.

Splitting from the European Union permanently damaged the continent's collective security architecture. By fracturing the Western alliance, the architects of Brexit directly compromised European stability at a moment when unity is vital.

This geopolitical vandalism benefits nobody except Russia, China, and the United States, all of whom gain from a divided Europe. Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping have capitalized on a weakened, fragmented European voice on the world stage, using the friction between London and Brussels to advance their own agendas.

This failure remains the defining, shameful legacy of Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage.

Ultimately, the only logical path forward for future generations is for the United Kingdom to rejoin the European Union, because reversing this isolationist blunder simply makes sense for the survival of the nation

[Richard Corbett @RichardGCorbett]

So, taking out the don't know/don't vote answers, that's well over 60% of those having a view wanting to join the European Union...

[Marcos Agustín @marcosagusstinn]

A majority of British adults would vote for the UK to apply to rejoin the European Union, with 52% supporting re-entry compared with 33% who want to stay out.

The EU still accounts for around 41% of UK exports and 51% of UK imports.

If 52% of British adults now support applying to rejoin the EU, governments in London must follow the will of the British people and the economic needs of the country.

The UK needs a serious strategy to rebuild its relationship with Europe, aligned with both the needs of its citizens and the long-term interests of its economy.

Brexit was of course the ultimate decline denialism, a Shakespearian tragedy and comedy all in one as the wannabe escapee proclaiming the end of geography is actually shrinking into the past rather than dealing with the modern world

[David Yelland @davidyelland]

As so often find I agree with @matthewsyed - here arguing facts have been competed out of our politics - but dare I suggest what few ever say in media: the ‘print’ media and commentariat have often allowed fact-free news - or low fact news - to flourish…. on Brexit… on so much else… Musk has been able to find friends among the editors…and Vance…
