Rejoining the EU by eating the Brexit Elephant one bite at a time.
I will defend myself but I do not want to engage in culture wars. Better to find what we do agree on and work to an acccomodation from there.

Today MPs voted in favour of the 10 minute rule bill on a new UK-EU Customs Union. A new arrangement would help reduce economic burdens and create a more reliable system for exporters. With the economic pressure increasing, Parliament needs to act.

The chemical industry is the second-largest manufacturing industry in the UK. Rejoining the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) would simplify regulation and improve long-term stability for the sector.

Why do they want us to leave the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR)?
The Government moots leaving the ECHR as a pragmatic solution to an immigration “crisis”, but is there a more sinister motive behind the push?

The Chancellor explicitly references the negative legacy of Brexit on the UK economy - so why is her govt so opposed to taking steps like joining the customs union or single market with all the economic benefits these would bring? #Budget2025
