As much as I agree with your definition of brexiters.
Unfortunately your solution is not an option. We live in a fptp system. This means 30+ % who agree on one thing. Are able to completely override a decided rest.
So unless all returners are willing to unite under a single policy. The brexiters will have power for ages. At least a generation or more.
So until. That huge reduction in brexiter confidence. Telling them to suck it up is just a garrenteed way to lose elections. Not giving the time needed.
Yeah that’s fair, I did say I thought this might take a parliament or four. That’s on the lower end of a generation but I agree this isn’t something that will be easily achievable in the current climate.
What would be nice to see is stronger push back on arguments driving away cooperation and closer alignment in the meantime. That is totally in our gift to do, Keir just needs the will to do it.
