As of November 1, 2026, Rachel Reeves, former UK Chancellor and Labour member, has argued that the UK's future should be inside the EU, stating that Brexit has made the country "poorer, weaker, and less secure." In an article published in The Sunday Times, she welcomed Prime Minister Andy Burnham's recent remarks that there needs to be an honest discussion about the UK's relationship with Europe. While Labour's 2024 manifesto ruled out rejoining free movement, single market membership, or a customs union, Reeves emphasized the need for supporters of re-entry to demonstrate tangible benefits and make the argument for it. Burnham aims to negotiate food and drink deals, emissions trading, and a youth mobility scheme with the EU at an upcoming summit in December 2026.
