With Trump making the world a much scarier and harder place, seems to me like a good time for the UK to consider rejoining the EU.

We should already be back.As it is, a tiny country cast between the EU and the US trying to trade with no established trade agreement with the US - nor never likely to have - and with the EU - though the EU seems keen to get UK bank in the fold.

Luckily for the EU, that doesn't depend on the UK. There won't be any cherry-picking as there was before.

I couldn't agree more. Unfortunately, the UK government is a gaggle of spineless cowards who are far more interested in appeasing the far right than they are in doing the right thing.

I agree. The nicest thing I can say about labour is that they are the lesser of two (or three) evils.

Quebec may be a strong point but that's still gonna be a tough sell

The Brexit vote was proof that dark money and disinformation could swing voters. Trump watched and learned.

British voters have buyers remorse and I'm sure many Trump voters do too.

As a french citizen I don't get in what way United Kingdom rejoining fascism-leaning EU would help british people or help us resist against Trump administration.
