The UK can re-join at some point in the future, but until then… what are you going to do?

Join the single market and honour one of the brexit pledges made to us.

That's proper fighting talk.

Reminded me of Keir Starmer's speech at the Labour Party Conference.

What’s with the attack on “lawyers”…?! Sounding more like a typical politician than a focused representative for his union members there. Maybe even a populist one. It’s rousing rhetorical stuff for sure, but is it the way to serve his members best? Perhaps he does fancy himself as PM.

I think he would struggle as a PM, especially in the current UK political setup, where popularism rules. Yes, he is a great union rep and advocate for collectivism. Being a politician involves making laws, drawing together different groups and being able to cover a wide range of topics, though. Starmer has a better background for this - he just needs to follow Mick's example and start appealing directly to the people.
