Chatham House

Could Britain really rejoin the EU?


Listen Later

Almost exactly ten years since Britain’s seismic vote to leave the EU, the debate reopens thanks to early skirmishes in the fight for leadership of the Labour Party and thus the prime ministership. Could a credible bid to rejoin make its way onto Britain’s political agenda? Are the drastically changed economic and defence environments making the case for re-entry unanswerable?

Bronwen Maddox talks over a major potential shift for the entire continent with Chatham House visiting fellow Ben Judah, director of our UK in the World programme Olivia O'Sullivan, and associate fellow and Financial Times international trade specialist Alan Beattie.
Produced by Podmasters for Chatham House.
