“For the first time since the Brexit referendum of June 2016, the idea of asking to return to the fold is on Britain’s political horizon. Granted, for now the idea of Bre-entry is confined to Labour politicians, floating the notion to charm party members ahead of a possible challenge to Sir Keir Starmer; several hope to become PM in his stead. Granted, too, that the euro-bashers of Mr Farage’s Reform ukparty are far ahead in the polls. But rejoining the eu seems to resonate with many British voters, a majority of whom think leaving was a mistake. The notion is unlikely to go away soon. As more and more Westminster politicians declare they favour applying for re-entry, the eu may one day need to say what it thinks of the idea of Britain boomeranging back into the union it left in a huff.” archive.ph/2026.05.22-100…

@TomK_Brit1993 Not a chance lmao

Reform UK will win the next general election. 🫡 🇬🇧 🩵

@Rosiecosy @AndyBurnhamGM Vote Green!

On the hottest day ever ( feels like it ) we were in Makerfield for @AndyBurnhamGM and a very positive response on the doors ♥️

@Heccles94 zeit.de/politik/auslan…

Farage’s career won’t survive this. I always thought it would. But it’s clear now he is done. The only question is will he take the whole of Reform down with him?

@MrLukeGeorge The UK should join the EU!

The UK should join the EU and the Euro! Let's take back our seat at the decision making table! Let's get back on the global stage! 🇬🇧🇪🇺💶

@WagonTrain2 Yes! Time to join the EU.

Yep

Farage: We have no links to Russia.ZEIT ONLINE: You didn't meet with the Russian Embassy's deputy chief-of-mission in London? Farage: Nope.ZEIT ONLINE: Not in 2013, before the Brexit campaign was conceived?Farage: Ah, hang on. He came to the EP office. Or I met with him in London

Farage has some explaining to do! zeit.de/politik/auslan…

@Telegraph @DanielJHannan We will see.

"The debate about going back into the EU is not so much purposeless as utterly fantastical. The people arguing for some future re-entry know that there is no realistic chance of it. But, for emotional reasons, they cannot let the idea drop," writes @DanielJHannan. 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/05/2…

@LizWebsterSBF @AndyBurnhamGM He's anti EU. Vote for The Green Party!

🎉 Just watched @AndyBurnhamGM powerful Makerfield campaign launch. Positive, grounded, and focused on what actually matters: we need to rebuild British manufacturing, protect farming and food security, fix housing, and deliver real change. This is the hopeful alternative we need, politics that puts place first, not Westminster games. Politics isn’t working for places like ours. Andy can change that. #AndyForMakerfield #BurnhamForLeader

@astraiaml UK!

Dear friends, I have a question Which country should be the next to join the European Federation in your opinion? I’d love to hear it!

Farage is a fraud!!! RT if you agree!

@W44Brian @ChillaxBcn @vonderleyen @eucopresident @MarosSefcovic @WeyandSabine That's just not true there was freedom of movement. I moved to Spain and I moved around Spain and worked in all different kinds of jobs so you are not telling the truth.

@ChillaxBcn @vonderleyen @eucopresident @MarosSefcovic @WeyandSabine There never was freedom of movement, it is only for workers and member states can impose whatever restrictions they want in terms of qualifications and income levels. There won’t be a big influx from E Europe now as there isn’t the gulf in income levels there was before.

"UK officials suggested single market for goods with Europe" BBC They mean EU. And Labour does *not* want Freedom of Movement. The EU must NEVER allow this or it will be the end of it all. I'm totally against this. @vonderleyen @eucopresident @MarosSefcovic @WeyandSabine

@ChillaxBcn @implausibleblog @vonderleyen @eucopresident @MarosSefcovic @WeyandSabine Vote green.

@implausibleblog @vonderleyen @eucopresident @MarosSefcovic @WeyandSabine I'm starting to think the UK will never rejoin and that the EU should not even let them. I'm fed up with this idiotic behaviour by UK politicians regardless of party #ExtraBratwurstUK

@ITVNewsPolitics This man advocated for the European Union and all of a sudden he changed his mind I hope he loses.

Burnham says backing him in Makerfield by-election would be 'vote to change Labour' itv.com/news/2026-05-2…

@andy4makerfield This man advocated for the European Union and all of a sudden he changed his mind I hope he loses.

Westminster isn't working for Makerfield. Andy Burnham is.

@andy4makerfield This man advocated for the European Union and all of a sudden he changed his mind I hope he loses.

Andy’s message to Makerfield is simple: he’s in it for you.

We are here to replace Labour. And take the fight to Reform. Join.greenparty.org.uk
