Especially when he said we still have colonies 😂

We do not want back in the eu. But we do want to offer a warm welcome to all eu citizens to the Uk. The past awful govvernment is over with. We just want to say we are sorry.

After all the insults and lies towards the EU, there is no chance for some time. You are right.

We are not asking for one. But being civil yes. We owe a debt of gratitude to all eu citizens who contributed to Uk society.For that we are truly grateful.

@@colinsmith1288 I think it is really hard to think of a way to make any type of agreement without the EU looking like they are coming back on the consequences of brexit. Not without looking weak atleast :P. Dont get me wrong, alot of people in the EU were sad to see the UK leave! I hope there can be an agreement both sides can live with.

@@koen6903 We just want to be friends again.The Tories did a lot of damage to both sides. Starmer is a good man and served his country well in public office. He will be a good friend to the eu. We just want peace with you all.

Don't worry, UK is no going back to the EU for a very long time. Labour will get destroyed at the next election is they try. Reform will be there for the next 5 years to remind them what will happen 😅

that is just garbage.., re-join EU and there is your problem solved..

How about attract outside investors?

@@clam3822 You have to balance multiple priorities, and it's impossible to know what the perfect balance is. It requires at least some degree of guess-work. Good governance is extremely difficult, even for people who are smart and doing their best to do what they think is right, and it only becomes more difficult when you've got economic weaknesses to deal with. It's hard even with a very strong economy.

@@clam3822 why would they invest in UK over other developing countries which have greater incentives and cheap labour for manufacturing etc?

@@clam3822 Just having adults in charge again will help boost foreign investment. Big business doesn't like political instability.

I like this idea

@@michaelpilos no thank you. Going too ‘right’ for my liking.

We are not wanted so we will not return.

@@colinsmith1288 skipping over the horizon 😂😂

@@Optimistic-101 We are not returning. It is what it is.

@@colinsmith1288 have you heard of the dispute at the moment over sandeel fishing? The uk DEFRA has banned it in UK waters due to the demise of puffins & other seabirds starving to death & suffering from Avian Flu. The UK have has been given a Judges’ Special Award in the 2024 Ocean Awards, sponsored by Blue Marine Foundation and BOAT International. The EU are trying to put a legal challenge in to re open the fishing 🙄🙄🙄 The environmentalist are kicking up a storm with the EU.

We will not vote Starmer out. He fixes the NHS and he will get all the tax he needs to fix it and another vote of confidence.

If the previous governments hadn't borrowed so much cash we'd have a better chance. Less private entities involved within the NHS, and cleaning house of bureaucracy and high paid individuals would also be a good start. A few quid extra in tax ain't going to matter. People have always been unknowingly robbed by corporations for a few quid extra because their emotional consumerism tends to blind them.

Unemployment isn't the problem, low wages are.

​@gomey70 We keep hearing low wages is the problem, but most of you say that you don't seem to understand basic economics principle, supply, and demand. No one set the minimum wage for doctors, engineers or electricians, brickies or locksmiths. It's purely demand and supply. Again it comes to personal responsibilities low wage people need to upskill. Don't rely on government to do so for you or tell you what to do. You can't expect to be making coffee and be expecting to earn as much or close to a solicitor. Same as when you're stacking shelves. I called locksmith the other day, he charged me £90 for coming to my house. I can't complain because there aren't that many of them around. It took him 3 days to respond, because it's not an emergency. So he can command so much. If there aren't that many cleaners or barristas around their wages will go up. It's simple.

The Brits chose that. They vaguely thought: better be at the EU's mercy than be part of it.

Is that the sound of you leaving?

@@clam3822 maybe you'll leave first lol

Funny that. You need to know Uk history to know the Uk always survives .

@@colinsmith1288Scottish independence grows every election cycle

@@jakeroper1096 Yet they voted labour. A unionist party.

@@colinsmith1288 Surviving is one thing, thriving is another.

@@mutkaluikkunen3926 The Uk is looking for trade alignment nothing more.

The UK never relied solely on Russian oil. Also, there was no way we would continue to buy oil from Russia after the sanctions. We already had bad relations with them 😅

Silly - India is the worlds 5th economy by size and is growing at breakneck speed.

@@auldfouter8661 Let’s get real. Middle income in India is USD350 per month. They usually buy reasonable priced items and mostly from China. That’s why UK is not doing well…..betting on India. The business is too small.

Puppet starmer claims we won't join in his lifetime, remember?

You seem to be obsessed with Europe politics 😉

The population of the UK is 68 million?

@user-rx6fx5hm7g Yeah, even at 70 million, only 25 million voted Only 30% of that 25 million voted for Labour. So 30% of 30% only voted for a party that has 3/4 of the Parliament. The fact that 50 million didn't vote is a huge problem. At least they should be forced to vote but have a non of the above box on the ballot paper. There are many reasons why people don't vote, so the country needs to take it more seriously. It should be a requirement to vote. Having only 10% - 12% of the population winning such a majority of the Parliament seats is absolutely insane.

​​The Uk has 650 parliamentary seats.

The Uk has about 70 million people. There are 650 seats in parliament.

Not every person is in age of voting either. Your data is all wrong.
