European Commission President Signals Support for UK Rejoining EU
Growing Protests and Public Demand for Return
Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, has indicated a clear preference for the United Kingdom to rejoin the European Union. This sentiment aligns with growing protests and public demands within the UK for a return to the EU.
Statistics show a significant increase in support for rejoining the EU, with a rise of 11 points since January 2021, when Brexit was formally implemented. The calls for re-entry have sparked discussions among continental Europeans, who have voiced their curiosity about the UK's future trajectory.
However, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has dismissed claims that Brexit could be under threat, stating that the UK is "not considering rejoining the EU."
