    By ‘renegotiate brexit’ they do not mean in any way that the UK would rejoin the EU. Starmer said the the UK would not rejoin the EU in his lifetime.

      We’re also not rejoining the customs union because he ruled that out too. He can do a little here but it is just a little.

      Even if thats his stance, what a dumb thing to publicly say.

      “The UK will not rejoin the EU in my lifetime!”

      Meanwhile, everyone agrees it was a terrible idea. Next day Starmer is murdered by someone with a brexit grudge. Next day all of UK asks “Ok, how about now? Can we rejoin EU now that we’re not in Starmer’s lifetime?”
