Corbyn sends Labour's five Brexit demands to May

JEREMY CORBYN wrote to Theresa May to set out five demands for her to get Labour’s support for a Brexit deal, in advance of the Prime Minister’s return to Brussels for talks today.

The Labour leader calls for a “permanent and comprehensive UK-wide customs union,” and close alignment with the single market.

Other demands are “dynamic alignment on rights and protections” to those of the EU, as well as commitments on participation in EU agencies and funding programmes, and “unambiguous agreements” on the detail of security arrangements.
