    Don’t think the EU would allow that anymore.

    The UK already had a special position within the EU by having their own coin and not having to play by all the EU rules. It was pretty weird that they wanted to leave in the first place while having such an advantageous spot.

      All of what you say is part of rejoinining. I said that at best they would revert to soft brexit (which is not rejoining) Switzerland and Norway are not it the EU.

        You are right but I doubt the EU would allow it. They made a pretty big stink about if the UK left they wouldn’t be allowed back on the same terms.
