In a major post-Brexit development, The Guardian reported exclusively that UK ministers are planning legislation that could allow Britain to adopt EU single market rules without a full parliamentary vote. The move, described as “dynamic alignment,” represents a dramatic shift in the country’s relationship with the continent.
The push for closer ties comes in the aftermath of the Iran war, which appears to have accelerated the prime minister’s desire for European partnership. Ministers are reportedly prepared to face down critics who “scream treason” over what would amount to a significant delegation of regulatory sovereignty. If enacted, the EU-UK reset bill would represent the most consequential recalibration of the Brexit settlement since Britain left the bloc.
