How often is it that Nigel Farage, Jean-Claude Juncker, Boris Johnson and Donald Tusk agree on something? Such unity across the political divide should surely be welcomed. So, what is responsible for this sudden outbreak of bonhomie between supposed foes? The answer is simple: they all agree that Brexit is not an inevitability. They all agree that the matter is still far from settled. Nigel Farage admits another referendum is possible, Boris Johnson reportedly thinks Brexit may still not happen, whilst Donald Tusk and Jean-Claude Juncker said today that the door remains open to the UK if the British people change their minds.
There should no longer be any doubt: until we’ve officially left the EU, Brexit is a reversible process. We have heard from legal experts, EU leaders, politicians across the spectrum, as well as the architect of Article 50, Lord Kerr. All say that the public have the right to change their minds on Brexit if they want to and the invoking of Article 50 can be reversed.
