Even if thats his stance, what a dumb thing to publicly say.
“The UK will not rejoin the EU in my lifetime!”
Meanwhile, everyone agrees it was a terrible idea. Next day Starmer is murdered by someone with a brexit grudge. Next day all of UK asks “Ok, how about now? Can we rejoin EU now that we’re not in Starmer’s lifetime?”
Regardless of your opinion of America, and there might be a better party to do this, it’s not the worst idea to have a third party friendly with both sides to do such a negotiation.
The fuck does the USA have ANYTHING to do with UK rejoining the EU? Regardless of which old fart is in office…
By ‘renegotiate brexit’ they do not mean in any way that the UK would rejoin the EU. Starmer said the the UK would not rejoin the EU in his lifetime.
We’re also not rejoining the customs union because he ruled that out too. He can do a little here but it is just a little.

Well
I’m still glad the white house is on the same page as #10 about the EU, at least for a few more months
Sole military superpower, largest economic power, global cultural hegemony . . . yeah, I have no idea
As “powerful” as the USA is, we’re talking about whole ass other first world countries here. Stop acting like no other country has any agency.
Did you somehow manage to stay at the End of History with Fukuyama? Is the portal to 1992 still open?
