Former UK chancellor Rachel Reeves backs eventual EU return

Rachel Reeves believes Britain’s future lies in the EU and argues Brexit has made it poorer, weaker and less secure. She wants supporters of rejoining to make their case and hopes an upcoming summit confirms a youth mobility scheme and brings progress toward UK entry into the SAFE defence scheme. Burnham wants a debate but says changes need an election mandate; Labour’s last manifesto pledged to stay outside the EU.
