  • New business secretary Jonathan Reynolds has told Sky's Trevor Phillips, constitutional arguments - like Brexit - will not be revisited with the EU, but trade opportunities could be explored.
    He said: "When it comes to trade, it's really about standards on food, we've got the same standards as the European Union.
    "If we can sell more whiskey, more salmon to a market which is so significant to us of course we should explore an opportunity like that and I think moving forward to be frank, a relationship to Europe that is not determined by the internal politics of the Conservative Party is very much in the national interest."

    Sure, trade opportunities could be explored... within the boundaries of the TCA. Which isn't up for negotiation, it's merely the *implementation* of the TCA that is up for *review* in 2026. European Commission Vice-President Maros Sefcovic explained to UK officials back in 2023 that it would only cover the implementation of the deal rather than wholesale changes. Mr Sefcovic said customs checks at the border would likely remain and stressed the TCA had not been used to its “full potential”. He said the review doesn’t constitute a commitment to reopen the TCA or to negotiate supplementary agreements. “The TCA will simply not be able to recreate any kind of notion of the single market.” The EU will welcome the return of competent adults in the UK's government. But that doesn't mean that previous agreements are subject to change.

      The EC started out promising to be a trading club, but treaty by treaty it was trying to take over by stealth what we fought so hard to keep in WWII. The EU is undemocratic - We don’t get to vote for the president of the parliament, it’s the old boys club choosing among their mates - that is an aristocracy not a democracy.

      The EU haven't moved anywhere and they aren't in the slightest bit interested in having the UK back in the club. The EU's economy has grown more than 3 times faster than the UK's since 2016 and the largest stock exchange in Europe is now based in Paris not London. Brexit has worked out very well for the EU, it's only an existential crisis for the UK. British exceptionalism convinced 17.4 million fools to vote for stupid in 2016, that same exceptionalism is now convincing some people we can return anytime we want. This is delusional thinking. If we ask really nicely we might be able to get back into the single market but that will come with a lot of conditions that the UK will find most unpalatable. Rejoining the EU is not on the cards because they won't take us back. They are sick to death of perfidious Albion and who can blame them?

    Also the below mentioned rule for student and graduate visa should change.
    "It is also worth noting that employers do not need to pay the Immigration Skills charge (currently priced at £364 per year of sponsorship for small companies, and £1,000 per year of sponsorship for medium and large companies) if sponsoring a Student visa holder to switch to the Skilled Worker route. In contrast, this charge would be applicable if they were sponsoring a Graduate visa holder."
    This rule clearly encourages people coming to study here focus on not studying, but to change to a skilled worker route. In reality, the students who come here to study should actually focus on studying and then look for jobs during their graduate visa term which will allow time for them to move to a better skilled worker route employment. This step will in turn helps the government not to rely on hiring other foreign skilled workers.
    Thanks

We all know the system should be ultered but to suggest reform to 800k to win a seat is trying to impose country wide popular vote onto system that does not care about it. It cares about localised popular vote. The only votes that mattered for reform were the wons that wons them seats. Is that unfair yes. But dont try and impose metrics onto a system that gives the outcome is it meant to. The system objetive is to give localised representation in a absolute manner it want over represnt parties that do well so it is easier for governemt formation. There are systems that make goventment formation a little harder and provide a element of pr and there are systems that make government formation difficult but are very represntive.

      Both ways are not practical.

And the Norway model would not be accepted by the British people as it would mean paying even more than membership states and essentially being a rule taker. Norway can afford that, as they have a relatively simple structure economy - oil and fish, that's it. It wouldn't work for the diverse British economy, especially the service sector.
