I doubt we will see a rejoin referendum any time soon. It’d be unlikely to happen in the first five years of a Labour Government as unlikely to make the manifesto. But once you get into the one after that. Preparations and a campaign would be a couple of years so 2033, negotiations and accession 2035 at fastest. We could be in a whole new world by then - you might not even use channel numbers on TV - life could be revolutionised!
Far more likely to see further economic harmonisation and trade short of membership.
