Prime Minister Andy Burnham said a future election manifesto could include a referendum on rejoining the European Union, acknowledging that the current relationship with the bloc is unsatisfactory. Earlier, Burnham told Reuters that Britain should examine a range of future ties with the EU, from maintaining the status quo to rejoining the single market or the bloc itself.

He later told The Irish Times that all options remain open and would be presented later in the year, and Politico. eu reported that his review could span from a customs union to full EU membership.
