As a political topic Brexit is becoming less and less relevant.
While people are regretting leaving, there is definitely not a clamouring to rejoin. The EU is barely discussed by politicians.
Rejoining would be without the opt outs the UK had so an actual debate on rejoining probably wouldn’t get enough support to rejoin. It would just be a toxic rerun of the brexit debate.
I dont see this being a political topic again for at least 10 years unless something dramatically changes. And if Le Pen becomes president of France, or AFD gain a share of power in Germany joining the EU may become even more politically toxic.
I wanted to remain, and I regret leaving but leaving has not been as disaterous as expected. Its not been good either but we can live with it.
And the best effect ironically is politicans are not incessantly fighting about the EU. I’m glad they are focusing on other issues now; the years around and after the brexit referendum were horrendous and factional. At least now the politicians are focused on the UKs actual issues such as public service and the economy.

Yeah, if rejoining happens, it’s going to be at a point where Brexit is ancient history in political terms. This shouldn’t really be downvoted.
It was a dumb decision, but a deeply democratic one, and rolling it back isn’t a good look to say the least.
