Yes, you wish.

So, yes, the story that I got, at least, was that David Lammy, Manoush Shafiq, who's the economic advisor at West Streeting, were pushing more for a customs union.

The Rest Is Politics

The Rest Is Politics
487. Is Starmer Rethinking His Approach to Europe? (Question Time)

It's instead a big...

The Rest Is Politics

trade deal from the point of view of the farmers in Cumbria, who I care a lot about, definitely much more beneficial, don't have the customs problems, and you also don't have the problems of cheap meat coming in from Australia and New Zealand.

which is it's not in the customs union, it's in the single market, but it has free movement of people, etc.

The Rest Is Politics

So I then want to come back to you, because again, you were saying in the car that if Labour is looking for something to do now, what they need to do is come full out for rejoining the European Union, hold a referendum on it.

The Rest Is Politics

The Rest Is Politics

I'm trying to sort of understand what the downside is.

The Rest Is Politics
487. Is Starmer Rethinking His Approach to Europe? (Question Time)

What I'd say to the people in Downing Street is you're doomed anyway.

The Rest Is Politics

If you continue in the current way you are, you know, some is not going to be able to win the next election anyway.
