The EU should have just stayed as a trading block. Once it became a political union too it’s fate was sealed. The countries asking for entry are only doing so because they see endless subsidies and grants available but someone has to pay for it and currently that is Germany and France. The only reason we are constantly being asked back is so that the UK can share the burden. It’s certainly not because they want their buddy back in the club as we all know that most of the EU have a great dislike (I was actually going to put detest) of the UK, as they constantly demonstrate at every turn.
Not only that, but now the US have a different administration we could actually find not being in the EU to our advantage, as Trump certainly isn’t as anti British as Biden was and the EU are not exactly his biggest fans.
The EU is a broken experiment, far too big and unwieldly, rife with corruption, deception and duplicity. It’s only a matter of time before it breaks up so I just can’t see why anyone would want to join, never mind re-join, especially as we would lose any of the concessions we had the first time around.
