"...the EU27 were gutted when we left the block...."
Errr...NO.
Everything was sorted and got prepared for Brexit the day AFTER the referendum happened...the EU27 were ready the day Brexit happened !!
And those β¬ 2,33 per month/head of us 450ish million EU citizens to "compensate" the loss of the UKs EU membership fee is affordable...
As the UK never paid its full membership fee due to the "Brit bargain", infact it were about one third of it only, the permanent demands of opt outs etc, it's recognisable, that since the UK left the EU27, the EUs member states are working together much smoother and faster..
Apart from, that the UK doesn't even fulfill the needed criteria for APPLYING for EU membership at the moment.
Estimated time needed for joining the EU are minimum 15+ years AFTER fullfilling the Copenhagen Criteria FIRST.
Every EU member state can leave the EU27 on its own free will, but it's up to the EU27 only, to decide, which country can join the EU and when.
Right now there are various EUs member states, which wouldn't even take UKs application form for EU membership.

Well, as stated in my other response to you = UKs electorate can hold as many referenda as wanted, still doesn't change anything, hence it's up to the EU27 only, to decide, which country can join the EU and when.
Apart from, that the UK doesn't even fulfill the needed criteria for APPLYING for EU membership at the moment..
To solve that issue = fulfilling the Copenhagen Criteria = will take ages, as one of the needed criteria is a national debt of max 55-60 %, the UKs national debt is at 101,2 % recently...we're talking debts of about Β£ 1 trillion at the moment, the UK has to get rid of...
