It’s in the air. Lots of polls suddenly being published showing a clear majority think leaving was a mistake, the BBC finally allowed to talk about how Br*xit has fucked up the economy, a barrage of newspaper articles buttering up the populace for better relations and closer ties with the EU, Nigel Farage losing his shit. These aren’t coincidences, it’s a pronounced change of direction at the top of government.

I do wonder if they are doing this because they see the problem as Brexit itself or a labour party being the ones to gain political advantage by undoing the damage?

I think they see the inevitable vector that the country will follow toward closer ties/rejoining, and they don’t want to be lumped in with the swivel-eyed lunatics and racists in the history books.
