    This should not be a controversial position. It’s self evident and should be done.

    More gravitas when it’s the government and high profile ministers saying what everyone with half a brain is thinking.

    Of course it would. Anyone with more than two brain cells can tell you it would.

    Now watch the mental gymnastics as people try to tell you this will be bad.

    It’s important to know that if we did this we would have to ditch our free trade deal with India and would mean we’d have higher tariffs on our trade with the US.

    It’s not an awful idea but it’s not a free lunch.

    Also, the original vote (now surely obsolete a decade on) said our place in the custom union and freedom of movement were never in doubt…so you can just do it as part of the original mandate. if anyone objects, point out they didn’t know what they were voting for….

    Can I be the one to mention that Lammy voted FOR the referendum legislation, Lammy voted to trigger A50 (without any plan or deal in place) voted AGAINST May’s nice soft Brexit, then voted FOR Johnsons shit trade deal after to agreeing to an afternoons scrutiny.

    I get the feeling Labour MPs are starting to get a bit of buyers regret.

    We could rejoin the Customs Union and the EC/EA/EFTA, and STILL be outside the EU. This would deliver on the sovereignty and control promise of Brexit. 

    As an aside, the Brexit referendum question was, “Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union”. 

    There was no mention of the Customs Union or EC. So there was non democratic mandate for leaving those institutions.

    It really won’t. We have largely tariff free access anyway.

    The friction that exists comes from regulatory standards of the single market.

    If what he is attempting to do here is start a ratchet process of re-integration he needs to be honest and say so…?

    Because single market comes with deep political implications and integration. No thanks.

  10. So I voted to leave. But it was a considered and justified vote.

    I have no objection to this. It’s about time the government put aside ideology and worked on what is in the best interests of the nation, and if that means upsetting people… So be it.

    If we never joined the EU and subsequently never left it. Everyone would be screaming to join the customs union. But since we’re now so divided anything like this will just be accused of trying to reverse Brexit

  12. Please please please just make it happen and ignore the nonsense right wing media trying to spin this in any way they can
