SHADOW justice secretary Richard Burgon declared that the “age of experts is over” today, telling Andrew Marr that people would not be browbeaten into accepting Theresa May’s loathed Brexit deal just because Establishment bigwigs say there is no alternative.

At a summit in Brussels today, leaders of the remaining 27 EU nations took around 40 minutes to sign off the deal that has barely any backing from either Remain and Leave-supporting MPs.

It will be put to MPs in Parliament to vote on before Christmas and more than 80 Tory MPs have already announced that they will vote it down.
