Hmmm.... on one level Starmer's repeated disavowal of rejoining the EU makes sense, not least as the protracted process does not have that much support in the EU. It would be a pretty difficult project & capacity is likely to be at a premium.

But, these may be positions that will change (due to 'events') over the course of the Parliament, or so one might hope.
