We may need to rejoin the European Union 🇪🇺

Has he considered that if Truss can't deliver on the benefits of Leave, that may be because there aren't any benefits? (Apart from being able to move the signs in the Dartford Tunnel, as the sole benefit identified by our Minister for Brexit Opportunities)

it is pretty clear that UK could not rejoin EU on such favourable terms as before. certainly no rebate that Thatcher negotiated, probably have to join Schengen agreement, maybe even adopt Euro.

but why would you rejoin? you know the benefits of leaving have been huge, so far you have signed many trade agreements giving you exactly the terms you had within EU. a great achievement.

the bright, shining future awaits you. all you have to do is be it.

@Yulianna I agree with the former part.

you know the benefits of leaving have been huge

But are you sure about this? I may be biased, but so far I've seen more problems than gains personally.

Not that the EU is faring great, it's almost like both unions are going downhill in different ways..

@Yulianna Rejoining the EU will never happen for one reason only. The UK will have to accept the Euro, and the British people will not stand for that.

Rejoining the single market is a much better idea :) The joke of it is, immigration into the UK is actually higher than it was before Brexit, driven almost entirely by arrivals from outside the EU. No one in the UK seems to be batting an eyelid, even though that was how Brexit was sold to the masses as a means of "keeping them out". Therefore, rejoining the single market should make few if any waves.

@SW-User good luck with that...

UK is not going to give up the manifest benefits of its independent trade policy.
