🔥 Just launched now… New European Movement campaign …to break Starmer’s 3 red lines of Single Market, Customs Union, Free Movement If Starmer wants “Britain at the heart of Europe” then this is what he must do. Now is the time to pile on the pressure. See —> www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/qr/wWq5QejW

I wrote a Substack on it too. “Heart of Europe” means something to pro-Europeans, because it’s *our* phrase. Starmer had better not be nicking our rejoin line in order to keep us outside the EU… …in doing so he’d be aggravating the very base he’s trying to appeal to in order to save himself.

Dear Keir, "Britain at the heart of Europe” cannot mean anything but full EU membership - so what's the plan?
Keir Starmer's speech today borrowed a stock phrase from European Movement UK's rejoin campaigning. Surely it wasn't just for 'vibes'. But if he really meant it, then where's the road map?

Today Keir Starmer found out that he can't keep saying that the world has changed and that we need to be more ambitious, and then keep plodding along within the same old policy red lines. It's time for new leadership and a real return to the heart of Europe. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Every single time Britain exercised a Brexit freedom, we ended up poorer or in a worse situation as a result. Just look at immigration under Boris Johnson, the dreadful NZ and Australian trade deals, the plight of our farmers, the loss of funds to the poorest regions, etc. etc.

The Brexit 'reset' bill is essential for closer UK-EU alignment. We are glad that the Government are intensifying negotiations, and we hope discussions on other areas, such as rejoining the Single Market and Customs Union, continue to develop.
