This is a total tell for Remainers on the limits of Burnham’s ambitions for rejoining the EU. If he won’t bend on financial regulation, hardly a Labour hobby horse, the bending required to rejoin is way out. He’s just trying to unite the left vote doing as little as possible.
Is this a joke?
The EU wants the UK to put tariffs on Chinese EVs and Steel in the Reset agreement using WTO GATT rules, but it also wants the UK to dynamically align with its's SPS rules which are against the WTO's CODEX rules.
Talk about cherry-picking!

It was a big week for Us Labours as John Healey gave his first & by the general reaction to it, probably last ever budget. Several clangers were dropped, not least the bizarre opening praise of the previous chancellor. Our Ang breaks it all down here:
If you think this is an acceptable price to pay in order to get closer to the EU, then your ideological devotion to Europe outweighs your concern for keeping UK citizens safe.
This is MIND BLOWING. This Labour Government is making migrant policy to suit the wishes of foreigners and not those of British citizens. This is a national outrage.
Nearly three-quarters of those who responded to the consultation on visa reform were visa holders.
The Government is consulting migrants on immigration policy and PIP recipients on welfare spending. And those responses are then used to justify maintaining the status quo.
They can't do it, can they? Every wknd they send out an Us Labours MP to get absolutely eviscerated by journalists which inevitably means I've got to dig around for a suitable wig. Today it was Emma um ur um ur Reynolds getting her arse handed to her #parody
