Labour has spent 10 years trying to sabotage Brexit. Now it is finally getting its way

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : Better practical access at borders: use of e-gates, an end to the 90-day limit on travel to the EU.
57% : Labour says it wants to improve food and animal trade with the EU.
55% : They will be accepting EU rules on carbon border adjustment measures - AKA tariffs, a clear customs measure.
55% : It is the EU that wants a youth mobility scheme so it can export its unemployed young people to our labour market.
55% : Labour just wants to be closer to the EU.
50% : My starting point would be to be clear what the EU wants and put them under pressure.
50% : And under no circumstances would we give up control to the EU, its laws, and its courts: whether on fish, on trade, on migration, on energy pricing and net zero, not on anything.
42% : The other way is the EU's way: drop trade barriers only if the other side applies EU rules and EU laws, ultimately enforced by the EU's courts, not just for selling into the EU, but in Britain too.
42% : Expect them to get some meaningless cosmetic concessions, but the reality will be clear: we will be operating under EU laws with essentially no say.
42% : It is the EU that wants a defence agreement, not us.
39% : We tried it in 2020, the EU refused, we ended the discussions.
38% : If international opinion looks askance at Britain, it's much more to do with the catastrophically bad management of the economy by Labour since last summer than anything to do with Brexit.
35% : That's what we did in that grim autumn of 2020, and it was the EU which cracked, not us.
35% : Like some dodgy used car salesman who just wants to get something off the forecourt, he's said to the EU: "Take this defence agreement off my hands.
