Summary
A survey by the European Council on Foreign Relations reveals growing public support in both the UK and EU for closer ties post-Brexit.
Notably, 54% of Brexit voters, including 59% in “red wall” areas, would accept free movement for access to the single market, with 68% of all UK voters in favor.
Across the EU, pluralities support economic concessions to improve UK cooperation on security, migration, and climate change.
The report urges leaders to align with public sentiment and pursue a bold “reset” of relations to address shared global challenges.
Well then, maybe don’t vote to leave the EU lol.
I mean yes and it also seems like people voting for specific economic outcomes without the foggiest idea of any of the consequences is the new normal. I don’t know if it’s the garbage media ecosystem, the garbage education system or the garbage economic system that let’s some people put their fingers on the scale but something’s fucked. Probably all of the above.
It sadly is the new norm.
Being closed-minded and stupid is seen as a sign of greatness these days.
“We don’t want to be part of the EU, but we do want to be part of the EU.”
Well it sounds like the UK would legitimately chose to be part of the EU at this point.
But, given the immense headache that was separation I think the EU doesn’t want to readmit them just to have them flip flop again.
Basically, the UK has shown that they’re a bunch of chucklefucks unworthy of trust.
the EU stated already that they’d be willing to accept them back, but they would go through the normal process. and very likely forget about privileges they had before, like keeping the pound
There is no real pressure on anyone to adopt the Euro. They can just never fulfill the requirements. Hungary joined 20 years ago and it’s not even on the horizon.
I mean yeah, the pro-brexit arguments were always magical thinking
So… Brentrance? Breturn? Bwefuckedupandandwantbackin?
Bregret
Ain’t getting a sweetheart deal this time, though. Hope the EU holds their feet to the fire if they try to rejoin.
I want them to come back so bad just so I can laugh at the malding that would come with the replacement of the pound with the euro.
And make them drive on the right.
Km/h alone would be enough to make them apoplectic.
They probably still get a decent deal. At the end of the day the UK would still be a significant boost to the EU. It is the second biggest economy in Europe.
Awww, wie niedlich
