Blair Think Tank Urges Britain to Rejoin Reformed EU Within 10 Years
The report says a reformed EU could make Europe a global power and urges a new UK-EU industrial council and defence cooperation.
- On Thursday, a report by the Institute for Public Policy Research, chaired by Sir Tony Blair, urged Britain to commit to rejoining a "significantly reformed" European Union within a decade.
- The IPPR found UK goods exports to the EU would have been up to £6.5 billion a year higher between 2021 and 2024 with a mutual-recognition agreement in place.
- Blair argued Andy Burnham's Government should pursue a "structured formal relationship" with Brussels where "everything is on the table," citing the EU's "newfound flexibility" with associate members.
- Polling by Best for Britain suggests Labour could secure 321 seats with a manifesto commitment to rejoin the EU—the only tested scenario to stop a potential Reform UK-led government.
- The report recommends developing the North Sea as a "strategic energy basin" and rejoining the EU's SAFE defence fund to position Europe as a superpower capable of challenging the US and China.
