Why Britain Can't Just Rejoin the EU

What would actually happen if the UK tried to rejoin the European Union? Picture it: a letter from Downing Street lands in Brussels asking to come back. Most people think that would be like pressing undo. It wouldn't. The rebate Thatcher won is gone, the opt-outs that kept the pound and Britain's own border checks are gone, and every one of 27 countries gets a veto. This autumn, Britain's new Prime Minister said going "all the way" back in was an option, and the President of France answered: welcome back. This video plays it out step by step on the map, from the referendum Britain would need first to day one at Dover, and why the hardest part isn't in Brussels at all. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CHAPTERS 0:00 The letter 0:57 How Britain left 1:49 What leaving cost 3:33 Changing minds 4:36 Step one: the vote before the vote 5:12 Step two: the letter 5:46 Britain has knocked before 6:36 Step three: the price list 7:41 The escape hatches 8:25 What Europe wants 9:14 Step four: the clock 10:14 Day one 11:10 What Britain gives up 11:47 The wildcards 12:41 The scorecard 13:11 The hardest part ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ All information comes from credible sources and citations. #Brexit #EU #UK
