Tony Blair says Britain should work towards rejoining EU in next 10 years

Andy Burnham under pressure to revisit Brexit as poll suggests pledge to rejoin could boost Labour's electoral chances

Britain should work towards rejoining the EU in the next decade, Tony Blair has said, adding to growing pressure on Andy Burnham to abandon Labour's reluctance to revisit the 2016 referendum.

The former prime minister has urged Burnham to use his 10-year plan in November to put the country's membership of the union back on the table, a decade after it voted to leave.
