The political turmoil and economic downturn undoubtedly aroused the anger of the British people. Just a few days ago, a large-scale protest broke out again in the UK, not only shouting the slogan of "Return to EU ", but even foreign politicians appeared to support and cheer.
According to Global Network , citing Guardian on October 24, a few days ago, thousands of protesters gathered in London to carry out a new round of large-scale protests against the British government. It is reported that on the same day, thousands of protesters held slogans and held high EU flags. They walked from Hyde to Parliament Square, and received support and encouragement from many people along the way. And when they arrived at the Parliament Square, the scene almost turned into the representative color of the EU - a sea of blue and yellow. It is reported that the protest aims to urge the British government to rejoin the EU and resolve many of the problems facing the UK.
And among the people participating in the march, Belgian former Prime Minister Vhofstadt is undoubtedly the most "big brand", and he has another identity, who is the chairman of the Brexit Guidance Group back then, and is also one of the biggest opponents of Brexit . He said during the march that he wanted to see Britain return to the EU "while he was still alive" because Brexit was not just a disaster for the UK, but for the EU. He also pointed out that Brexit has made the UK and the EU weak at the same time. In the context of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, we need a "more united EU".
In addition, he also fiercely criticized the Conservative Party as the ruling party . He pointed to the statue of Prime Minister Churchill in the parliament square and said angrily, "This Britain's greatest politician will never do what the Conservatives are doing now" - ironically, Churchill himself is a member of the Conservatives.
In addition to him, many people participating in the parade expressed their dissatisfaction. Protester Jackson said politicians should listen to those who wish to rejoin the EU, because joining the EU is the best way to get Britain back on track, otherwise the UK will have to continue to "bleed".
And when the large screen on the parliament square shows photos and support ratings of prime minister candidates such as Johnson , the crowd even booed. A protester said that if Johnson is re-elected, he will become the "last nail" in the Conservative coffin - because it was Johnson who made Britain an international laughing stock, and his rule was an insult to Britain.
This demonstration is undoubtedly the "internal and external troubles" facing the UK at present. Not long after taking office, Tras quickly announced his resignation and ran away after messing up the British economy, leaving behind a mess. Today, Britain has to face the biggest crisis of inflation and rising costs of living in decades. If the UK had not decoupled from the EU at the beginning, then the EU's economic policy would be able to provide the UK with a bottom-line guarantee and stabilize the UK's economic situation without being "helpless" as it is now; in addition, the changes in the international situation caused by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict have made more and more people realize that Britain, which has left the EU, has become "lost". Russia's potential threat has made many people believe that Britain should return to the EU to deal with the "possible European war."
But is it possible for the UK to return to the EU? If you only look at public opinion, it is indeed possible. After all, when the referendum on Brexit, the gap in votes between the two sides was not big. At a time when the security and economic situation deteriorated, it is normal for public opinion to be tilted. However, the next British Prime Minister may not advocate Britain's re-entering the EU, as most Conservative members still do not believe that Brexit caused the decline of Britain. At the international level, the legal procedures for joining the EU are extremely complicated. If the UK wants to re-trace the application, Copenhagen standard review, reform and candidate waiting, it may take more than ten years. For the current UK, re-joining the EU is just a way to save the "far water" that is "near fire".
