Electoral wipeout can be a powerful motivator and at the moment closer trade ties with the EU seems like a fast way to achieve some growth. You just make sure you don't touch EU legislation - other than adopting similar standards which we already do anyway - and free movement.

The ERG can whine all they like but they'll have to ask themselves what's their alternative since their promised trade deals never materialised and their 'cut taxes to achieve growth' mantra backfired under Truss that the argument won't wash anytime soon.
