Good. But priority for EU is integrate the West Balkans (waiting too long), Ukraine + Moldova.
In parallel reform processes:

  • abolish national vetos (aka consensus) so no Orban-types can take the ship hostage.
  • strengthen the EU parliament, over the council and commission
  • accept concept of multi-tier participation (it's reality anyway)

We need more debating each issue on each merits, rather than horse-trade mega-packages of transactional deals. In that respect, if Britain rejoins one component at a time, it’s better for everybody's understanding of benefits and challenges.
