By the end of this decade, Rejoin will be a very mainstream position among British politicians in the way it already is with British voters.
Still, that means it is probably not going to happen until the last years of the following decade at the earliest and that is if a significant effort is made to reduce the gap on standards and regulations introduced in the last few years.
Nah, they’ll begin the candidacy talks, the U.K. will say “soo same deal as before, maybe we compromise on the color of the passport?” the E.U. will say “LMAO. To start with, the Euro is non-negotiable” and that will be the end of that until 2050 at least.
Having a Rejoin movement in the UK is one thing, good on them for rubbing the Leavers’ noses into their own shit stains, but everything I know about the UK shows that you will never get a majority of voters in favor of the new accession rules, that have been repeatedly stated by the EU as non-negotiable (for obvious geopolitical reasons of fairness towards other EU member states as well as fear of precedent-setting).

Nobody really cares that Sweden isn’t using the Euro even though going by the spirit of the law they should, but the U.K. is a much more important economic player that I don’t see the EU allowing to keep absolute control over its currency.

8 EU-countries are outside the eurozone, though.
Either because they joined before that was a requirement and have a special exemption (what the UK had before they left and what Denmark has), don’t meet the economic requirements, or are Sweden and meet the requirement but haven’t started the procedure which is a weird loophole nobody cares enough to patch… yet.
