It could be a hot take, but I am against any more countries joining the customs Union. You’re either in or out. No more sweat deals where you get the benefits and non of the negatives.
I’m surprised Paul Nowak isn’t towing the labour line as he normally does.
Pound has to go.
This isn’t even news in the UK, yet it’s news on the continent.
There’s no chance the UK will join a customs union, and there’s certainly no chance the UK will rejoin the EU.
Without your old advantages, you re welcome.
I think it is inevitable. First UK joins the customs union and then at a later time rejoins the EU when enough time has passed that nobody loses face.
I’d rather we just fully rejoin the EU, including things like adopting the Euro
These type of articles are what you call ‘news fodder’. When there is no real news to report, outlets publish these cheap stories that add no real value.
Yes, both sides could do with a better overall relationship but the UK will never join the Customs Union in our lifetime again.
There is no world where they adopt the Euro etc. it is just NOT happening.
All these articles do is further inflame viewpoints on both sides for the weak minded.
But they have the USA.
Both hate EU so much.
It’ll be 350mil a week then.

In my opinion, the Customs Union is overrated.
It doesn’t give you access to the Single Market like a member. It just reduces some red tape, but not much. You’re still a 3rd country to the EU. (Like Turkey)
The UK had the best deal they’ll ever have when they were in the EU (never had to switch to euro etc etc). I doubt they will ever be part of it in any form ever again
Why’s it a red line when during the Referendum, leave supporters like Farage constantly said we’ll be like Norway and Switzerland (customs union and single market).
That red line policy is making Britain poorer by the day.
Why Labour acts like it’s their job to uphold Brexit doesn’t make sense to me.
Brexit was a Tory misstep. A very clear mistake. Seems like the easiest thing in the world would be blame everything bad on the Tories, Rejoin the EU. Then profit. Sure. It might be a wee bit of a lie to blame it all on the Tories, but that’s politics.
You can be damn sure that if the shoe was on the other foot, the Tories would hammer Labour with the failures of Brexit and seek a reversal.

Starmer Rejects the Idea of Britain Rejoining the EU Customs Union
He Insists Such a Move Would Endanger *Post-Brexit Trade Agreements* and Complicate Ongoing Negotiations With Brussels
Post Brexit trade agreements…
I’m extremely skeptical that any PBTA’s are worth much to the UK, in fact I would go as far as to say they’re a negative to the UK *people*.
Happy to be proven wrong..
And as for complicating negotiations with Brussels – again, this probably means they can’t screw the people over as much if we’re back in.
edit: *of course*
His stance indicates that he prefers Britain’s post-Brexit capacity to strike trade deals around the world—chiefly with President Donald Trump—to the complexity of negotiating a return to the European customs area
