Wes Streeting, who would like to be the next Prime Minister, would like to be the next Labour leader, has said they should have a campaign to rejoin or at least rejoin the Customs Union.
I fully expect Andy Burnham to be the next Prime Minister after this.
I met him the day you met him and not so long ago.
Good guy, good, strong Irish roots, has been a good mayor objectively.
He certainly hasn't said that they'll rejoin the EU.
If anything, he says, no, I'm going to make Brexit work.
And I feel sorry for Keir Starmer for loads of reasons.
Objectively, he hasn't been a bad Prime Minister, but he's been completely hamstrung.
Hamstrung by the impacts of Brexit.
Whoever replaces him, and whatever they try to do, they are inheriting a British economy and a British society that has been systematically damaged by Brexit.
And there isn't a clear pathway out.
It depends which member state you visit, to be quite frank.
This is the thing, when Brexit was dominating my life and the headlines everywhere here, you'd go over to a meeting in Brussels and it wasn't even mentioned.
Because the further you moved away geographically from the UK, it just wasn't a big impact.
Economically, society, they go like, well, let them have their moment and they'll make their decision.
