A couple of weeks ago I'd have said there's a zero percent chance that the UK would rejoin the EU, but maybe that's now risen to ten percent...maybe?

Starmer's government have struggled to establish a strong narrative since they came in, 'Bre-turning' would certainly solve that problem (and also restore 5%to our GDP). I have a feeling he won't have the stones for that though...

A silver lining to trump's twattery is that it seems to be uniting a lot of factions that were previously fracturing.

It can only be a good thing that a growing number of non-american MAGA sympathisers have woken to the fact that they're not invited to the party.

I can't see Starmer ever proposing re-joining the EU...He is very much more along the lines of "We voted for it, time to move on" and he is probably a bit worried about there still being a large portion of anti-EU and reversing course so soon after a public vote, I don't think he has the stones for it, I believe Lib Dems should make their big pitch for the next election to re-join the EU, it may not cause them to win but damn I would love for Lib Dems under Ed Davey to be the opposition party instead of Tories and Lib Dems can sort of fill a gap now.

I have to give Starmer credit though, I think he has done a brilliant job at rallying Europe and looking like a leader of Europe, I feel like UK-EU relations are the best they have been in over 10 years, Lol. I think Starmer is going to balance the act of being a good partner to EU without actually re-joining EU. UK is using its military influence and standing to come back into the fold. The only thing I'd say is that I'm annoyed by how much he tries with Trump and refuses to criticise him because he's trying to avoid Trump tariffs which I think is futile, I do believe that it would only help his polling if Trump started attacking us next and bring us closer to European unity, Lol.

And it's funny to see right-wing parties across Europe suddenly realising how toxic it is to associate themselves with Trump/America now and starting to criticise too, even Farage at times has had to throw a little rebuttal at America which must have broken his poor little heart, and it is an effective attack angle for parties now to criticise other parties for bending over to America, I feel like the left/centre finally have their angle of attack which people can rally behind, Lol. In the same way that the right blame everything on immigrants.

Anyway Reform UK is currently eating itself apart even aside from America, Lmao.
