Draft Starmer Press Release That Shows Labour Working With Brussels
Guido can reveal the existence of a draft Keir Starmer press release that shows Labour has been working with Brussels on Brexit policy. The draft press release, which was written after Corbyn’s speech last week, would have boasted how Labour had “secured EU backing” for their customs union proposal. The statement would have said “it is understood” that the European Parliament’s Brexit Steering Group was set to “adapt its resolution to reflect the wording of Jeremy Corbyn’s customs union policy”. The press release was never sent but it has been leaked to Guido…
Labour secure EU backing for customs union proposal
Brussels officials have given their backing to Labour’s proposal for a new UK-EU comprehensive customs union.
Keir Starmer, Labour’s Shadow Brexit spokesperson, visited Brussels this week following Jeremy Corbyn’s speech in Coventry in Monday.
On Wednesday, Michel Barnier told journalists Corbyn’s proposal to keep UK in a customs union “offers a significant part of the solution for Ireland.”
Later this month the European Parliament is expected to adopt a resolution setting out its demands for the next phase of Brexit negotiations.
It is understood that following the Labour’s leader’s speech the Brexit Steering Group will adapt its resolution to reflect the wording of Jeremy Corbyn’s customs union policy – particularly proposals for a “comprehensive” customs union.
The backing of Corbyn’s Brexit stance from the EU Commission and Parliament will heap pressure on the Prime Minister to provide a credible solution to the border in Northern Ireland.
Why was Labour so keen to “secure EU backing” for their customs union policy? How and when did they secure this backing? How was it “understood” that the European Parliament was set to back their policy? Why was the press release never sent? Was it ditched after media speculation about Labour colluding with the EU? This appears to be evidence that Labour has been working with Brussels to undermine the UK negotiating position…

Re: Draft Starmer Press Release That Shows Labour Working With Brussels
I think I am right in saying that most labour constituency's voted to leave the EU...
How many labour MPs are there in NI...?
If the EU want to impose a border between Rep of Ireland and NI... and nobody there wants it... then the best solution is for Rep of Ireland to leave the EU...!!!
