This plan is naive. The EU will require full membership or nothing at all, apart that is for the convenience of the current agreements which reduce costs on both sides. Until the Tories and Reform agree that full membership is desirable, nothing can be done. The LibDems and Labour recognise the advantages of full membership but the Tories and Reform would, inevitably, threaten to withdraw long before the re-joining negotiations were complete.
I want closer ties with the EU. I want a return to free movement. I wish I could make a difference by voting Lib Dems, but first past the post sees to it that my vote doesn’t count in this Labour constituency where I live. I want proportional representation.
I’m a Labour member, but if you will promise to re-join the single market and customs union, l will vote for you.
