Caroline Lucas, Green Party co-leader, has responded to Keir Starmer’s interview on the Today programme today [1].
She said:
“Though Labour’s position on the EU has improved since their Article 50 capitulation it still simply isn’t strong enough. It’s a different tone, but looks like the same Brexit.
“Labour’s hollow words on access to the single market simply doesn’t stack up. Either they want Britain to remain a member of the Single Market or they don’t. And Labour’s reluctance to give British people a final say on the terms of any deal shows an utter disregard for democracy. If they trust MPs to have vote on the deal, then why not give people the choice in a ratification referendum?”
