Clegg argued that Brexit was an attempt to 'deny geography,' emphasising that the UK's interests will always remain closely tied to its European neighbours due to security, trade, and other factors. He suggested that the UK's future relationship with the EU could become intertwined with Ukraine's fate, as he finds it 'almost unthinkable' that Ukraine would join the EU's 'top table' without the UK alongside it. His remarks follow a recent poll for The Independent, which found that 55 per cent of people desire a return to freedom of movement, while almost two-thirds believe immigration has worsened since Brexit. Labour leader Neil Kinnock commented that people are increasingly 'feeling the Brexit effects' and recognising that promises made by Brexiteers were 'garbage,' suggesting a negotiated return to the EU and Single Market will eventually occur.
