Starmer's Stance on Rejoining EU
Keir Starmer, the Labour leader, has made it clear that the UK will not rejoin the EU if he becomes Prime Minister, countering claims made by the Tories. Starmer emphasized that rejoining the EU, single market, or customs union is not part of Labour's plan or manifesto.
Focus on Better Trade Relationship
Instead of rejoining the EU, Starmer aims for a better trade relationship with the EU, focusing on increased collaboration in areas such as research, education, and security. He believes that a more favorable deal with the EU can be achieved if Labour comes to power.
Reflections on Brexit Referendum
Reflecting on the Brexit referendum that took place eight years ago, Starmer acknowledged the turmoil it brought to politics for three years. He highlighted the need to avoid returning to such division and uncertainty to rebuild the economy and create secure jobs.
Tories' Criticism and Concerns
In response to Starmer's stance, Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch and other senior Tories raised concerns about the potential risks to Brexit progress if Labour were to govern. They emphasized the importance of maintaining the benefits of Brexit and not regressing to previous stages.
