Businesses are urging Andy Burnham to build a closer relationship with the EU. Do you think that’s the right call?

Businesses have been saying Brexit hurt them since we left, and I know lots of people who want a closer relationship with Europe.

I’m not saying we should rejoin, but I do think getting closer to such a big trading partner would help ordinary people, whether that’s working abroad without visas, or being able to import goods more easily.

Do you think that Burnham should reopen the conversation?

Ten years on. I'm a European national who has lived here since 2001. I've just been forced to get a British passport I never wanted. I wrote about what this decade has actually felt like.

How quickly after the 1975 EEC Referendum did mainstream political parties call for leaving?

I'm sick of hearing that rejoining the EU would be "undermining democracy". We voted to join the EEC back in 1975, but the political parties of the time didn't wait 30 years to start complaining about it.

I'm sure the fringe parties (who used to be unelectable) like National Front would have complained from Day 1 after the referendum. But how long did it take for a mainstream political party to propose leaving the EU?
