Shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer
ENSHRINING the date of Brexit into law would be the “next accident waiting to happen,” shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer said yesterday.
He called on ministers to drop the “ill-conceived gimmick” of seeking to fix the date of Brexit after the government was defeated in its bid to refuse MPs a vote on the final deal.
Tory rebels have also warned the PM not to persist with the amendment which would set in law that Britain’s membership of the EU must end at 11pm on March 2019.
‘People up and down the country are asking whose side is the Labour government on and coming up with the answer: not workers,’ Unite general secretary Sharon Graham says
From Gaza complicity to welfare cuts chaos, Starmer’s baggage accumulates, and voters will indeed find ‘somewhere else’ to go — to the Greens, nationalists, Lib Dems, Reform UK or a new, working-class left party, writes NICK WRIGHT
