The Chancellor wants to boost trade, but refuses to commit to working with the EU to reduce the cost of exporting goods. A serious strategy for growth would reduce barriers, not increase them.

At Birmingham’s Christmas Market, traders are telling the same story to us again and again. Behind the lights and stalls, small businesses are still paying the price of Brexit, with business now harder, slower and more expensive.

£100 billion of trade a year and over a million jobs since Brexit have been lost. We agree with Sir John Major, Brexit is a flop, but now, we must fix it.

The UK has fallen behind the EU on policies to tackle climate and nature, but cooperating with the EU could achieve cheaper bills, healthier communities, and a thriving natural world. As COP30 comes to a close tomorrow, we’re calling on the Government to team up with the EU to

New figures from the Bank of England demonstrate just how much of a negative impact Brexit has had on the UK economy. Trade weakness combined with uncertainty has decreased our GDP, Investment, Employment, and Productivity, resulting in a negative decline for the UK compared to

With £21 billion exiting this year alone, it is clear the damage Brexit has done to our economy is substantial. Rekindling our relationship with Europe is the only way we can support domestic companies and attract foreign investment.

Many people now realise that leaving the European Union was a mistake, but the question now is, what do we do about it? The years of denial are over, we now need to work out how to fix the calamity that Brexit has caused, and restore our relationship with Europe.

Cyprus: I've been talking to people on both sides of this tragically divided nation - in a week in which the self-styled "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus" (recognised by no country other than Turkey) has elected a president committed to reunification. https://t.co/pwG7KTa03i

International cooperation matters, but there's no need to look across the Atlantic. Our future depends on rebuilding our relationship with the European Union, rather than rolling out the red carpet for a president hostile to European unity.

Leaving the European Union has stripped rural communities of stability and security, as the farmers who were told they would be better off, are now facing higher costs, more red tape, and less support. This is yet another example of a false Brexit promise.

Brexit was not a one-off hit. It’s bleeding us money and lost opportunity every day we stay in it.

The question of our future membership of the EU is for the voters of the future, not the voters of the past. In a rapidly changing trading and geopolitical environment, the terms of the UK’s engagement with Europe cannot be assumed to have been settled by a 52 - 48 vote a decade
Wes Streeting, "The question of European Union membership is settled" "It's been settled by a referendum and a number of general elections" Labour have coined the phrase builders not blockers, but by keeping the UK outside of a Customs Union with the EU, Labour are the actual

The Tories can shout at me all they like, but the truth is their Brexit deal it is hurting our country and Labour won’t do anything about it. Today I urged the Prime Minister to actually fix it.

So why aren't we rejoining EU. We left ...now everyone with half a brain knows brexit was a huge con and disaster. None of brexiters got what they voted for - all us normal people got exactly the brexit we voted against
