Do you think the UK should seek ties with Europe instead of with the US?

    Spot on. They don’t want to take risks in their first term. And with the economy not looking like they’d hoped after the budget they have less political capital to hedge on any bigger moves.I think even joining the EUCU would be too far.

    Short of a massive schism in the political landscape where all Labour Brexitiers up and leave the party and all Tory Remainers up and leave their party with the two factions joining forces in some new party where the overall pro EU support has a majority I can’t see anything happening for multiple terms. And that’s not going to happen because politics is literally football in this country and it’s all about the rivalry and very little else.

    Set your sights on 2060 or beyond.
