Plaid Cymru urges Burnham to commit to EU rejoin now, not at next election
Plaid Cymru’s Westminster leader, Liz Saville Roberts, has called on Prime Minister Andy Burnham to explicitly back rejoining the European Union immediately, rather than delaying the decision until the next general election. Roberts argues that Wales has suffered economically and politically since the 2016 vote to leave, and that Burnham’s current approach of 'considering options' lacks the necessary leadership. This call follows Burnham’s recent statements that a referendum on EU membership could appear in a future Labour manifesto, a move that has sparked debate within his own cabinet and across the UK political spectrum.
