Emma, do you think it's reasonable to expect a bit more boldness on Labour's 2029 manifesto? Like, after a term of competent governance and incremental improvements in people's lived experiences, Britain might be in a place where the issue was no longer so polarising and the government could be trusted to renegotiate?

It's a very good question to which the annoying answer is "it depends". A lot of things will make a difference - Where the EU is politically, if Trump is elected, what happens in Ukraine, what happens with where Labour gets to in closer alignment and how that works. So hard to say, but if all goes well, I would hope so.
