"Support for rejoining the EU is particularly strong among Labour, Liberal Democrat, and Green party supporters, with 83%, 84%, and 82% respectively favoring this option. This indicates a significant shift in voter attitudes since the Brexit referendum."
"Labour's current policy of aligning with but not joining the single market means it has no influence over regulations and directives, which could lead to a loss of support among progressive voters."
"Rejoining the customs union and single market would politically challenge Labour, as it would reopen past divisions and require a deep conversation about sovereignty and regulation outsourcing."
Research indicates that over 80% of supporters from Labour, Liberal Democrat, and Green parties favor rejoining the EU. While 61% of all voters back the government's current EU relations approach, only 19% support it strongly. A full return to the EU garners 53% overall support, with 83% from Labour voters. Labour's low-ambition policy risks alienating progressive voters. Rejoining the customs union and single market poses political challenges and would require significant discussions on sovereignty and regulation outsourcing.
