Alarm bells will be ringing across Leave-voting Britain as Labour councillor Sebastian Salek takes to X to openly cheer the government’s creeping return to the EU on the eve of local elections. The Waltham Forest councillor proudly declares that Labour has already begun the process of rejoining the bloc – “not through campaigns or slogans,” but through “technical deals and unsexy laws.” As Guido has been warning…
It’s not obvious yet, but the EU rejoining process has already begun.
Not through campaigns or slogans – but technical deals and unsexy laws.
5 signs it’s happening:

Salek helpfully lays out Labour’s rejoin process in a thread: praising the youth mobility scheme with the EU, flagging the UK’s acceptance of Brussels’ product standards, celebrating realignment with EU carbon rules, and hailing what he calls a “big shift” in the political narrative. He concludes that “step one of rejoining is rebuilding trust and institutional ties… this is how it starts.” Local Labour reps touting backdoor EU deals to woo voters proving Starmer’s rejoiner army is well on the march back to Brussels…
Starmer loyalist and Housing Secretary Steve Reed told Sky News that Starmer should not be replaced:
“We saw what the Tories did. They were in power for 14 years, and after 2016, I think we had nine education secretaries, seven chancellors, and five Prime Ministers. Doomscrolling through Prime Ministers doesn’t resolve the problem.”
