Andy Burnham has raised the prospect of the United Kingdom rejoining the European Union or at least joining its customs union. The comments from the Mayor of Greater Manchester, seen as a potential future Labour leader, come amid ongoing debate over the economic costs of Brexit and Labour's positioning on closer ties with Brussels. His remarks are likely to fuel discussion about whether the party's stance on Europe is shifting.
