Labour’s objective is tariff free access to the single market – Starmer

Keir Starmer MP, Labour’s Shadow Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, speaking at a Labour in the City event this evening, said:

“Labour’s objective is tariff free access to the single market, no new red tape at customs and a deal that works for services as well as goods. It is vital that we retain the benefits of the single market and the customs union. How we achieve that  is secondary to the outcome and should be part of the negotiations. We need to be flexible in our approach and not sweep options off the table.”
