The French finance minister, Roland Lescure, said the UK could rejoin the EU “anytime” after Andy Burnham indicated a major review of Britain’s relationship with the bloc.
Lescure said it was up to the British public whether to return to the EU, telling the BBC that “if they’re willing to come back, they will have to decide”.
“But what I can tell them is: come back, anytime,” he added.
