Prime Minister Andy Burnham will present a series of specific frameworks for Britain's association with Europe to identify a single path that attains a national consensus. Speaking at the Labour Party conference, Burnham announced a summit with EU leaders later this year to evaluate different options for a long-term relationship, arguing that a settled agreement with the UK's largest trading market is necessary to secure a clear trajectory for the country for the remainder of the century.

The move comes as Burnham asserts that Brexit "has done more harm than good" and failed to provide Britain with actual control over its own affairs. A government spokesman has not ruled out the possibility of the UK rejoining the EU as one of the options under consideration. The upcoming summit is intended to resolve the geopolitical uncertainty and establish stability for both Britain and the European continent.
