Again, worth analysing Burnham as if he is really good at politics: moving red lines from things EU can't accept (free movement) to things it might (euro). Changing terms of debate on an issue from negative (uncontrolled immigration) to positive (Brits can go abroad for work).
I think @andyburnham.bsky.social wants to rejoin the EU. Not spin. It's incredibly bold to even raise free movement. Perhaps testing the water to see if public opinion on immigration has changed. The Europeans are paying attention
Watching him carefully but deliberately wade into this issue is very encouraging. For over a decade, political leaders have not dared to break the consensus on free movement and without that there can be no meaningful improvement in European relations. Now here he is, breaking the consensus. And look: the sky has not fallen, the ground has not caved in.
