The Government is still no clearer about what our long term relationship with the EU will look like – Corbyn
Jeremy Corbyn MP, Leader of the Labour party, responding to the Prime Minister’s speech in Florence, said:
“Fifteen months after the EU referendum the Government is still no clearer about what our long term relationship with the EU will look like.
"The only advance seems to be that the Prime Minister has listened to Labour and faced up to the reality that Britain needs a transition on the same basic terms to provide stability for businesses and workers.
“That’s because Theresa May and her Conservative cabinet colleagues are spending more time negotiating with each other rather than with the EU.
“The Tories have made clear they want to use Brexit to deregulate and cut taxes for the wealthy. Labour wants a Jobs-First Brexit that uses powers returned from Brussels to invest and upgrade Britain’s economy.”
