Starmer warns against ‘looking backwards’ to Brexit after rivals back UK’s return to EU

Keir Starmer urged against dwelling on Brexit, emphasizing the need to focus on the future at the G7 summit. Despite pressure from rivals advocating for the UK's return to the EU, he reaffirmed the Labour government's commitment to not rejoin the bloc. This stance highlights a shift towards viewing the relationship with the EU as a collaborative partnership moving forward, rather than rehashing past divisions. The move is significant as it underscores the UK's intent to forge ahead and build on existing progress rather than revert to old conflicts.
