Any concessions agreed as part of Starmer's so-called 'reset' will come at a price.
Surely it would be better to pay more & get much more back in return, not least our EU citizenship?

Accession is a good thing, Andrew.

Millions of people, many who suffered behind the Iron Curtain, now have open borders to Europe.

This is to be celebrated, not attacked.

Don't let Reform and the Tories take the UK out of the ECHR, a bulwark of freedom and human rights that the UK helped to write 75 years ago!
Seventy-five years ago, Britain helped write the European Convention on Human Rights to keep power in check and protect basic freedoms. That legacy is now under threat. Read our piece on why the ECHR still matters and why defending it means defending Britain’s own values.

We're the UK's largest pro-European movement. Our goal is to reverse the calamity of Brexit and restore relations with our European neighbours.
