Tony Blair calls for UK reentry to EU in a decade
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has called on the UK government to develop a plan to rejoin the European Union within the next ten years, with agreement on conditions that include freedom of movement for people and financial contributions to the Union. His paper emphasized moving towards official and organized relations with Europe, while excluding current red lines such as joining the single market or remaining outside the customs union. This appeal comes amid pressure within the Labour Party, as Blair revitalizes the debate over the possibility of Britain restoring its relationship with the EU following the 2016 Brexit referendum. These proposals raise questions about the type of relationship Britain envisions with Europe after Brexit—and whether the country will shift from managing the effects of separation to redefining the relationship in a new way. Recent polls indicate that Labour’s commitment to pursuing re-entry could increase its parliamentary seats, but the discussion is not without opposition within the party and risks reviving past divisions.
