Questions grow over true cost of UK-EU deal as Starmer stays silent

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

56% : In Brussels, EU diplomats celebrated, with one telling the BBC: 'The deal is balanced - arguably with favourable terms for the EU - and simply shows that splendid isolation is not an option in today's climate.'
51% : The PM, however, insisted his deal would be 'good for our country and good for the economy'. Downing Street denied the PM had signed a blank cheque to the EU but said the implementation of parts of the deal is still being negotiated.
48% : Tory grandee Sir Bernard Jenkin said the PM was 'submitting to EU regulations without any control and starting to pay money back to the European Union - he is giving up control over our laws and restoring payments to the European Union'.
47% : While Tory MP Dame Harriett Baldwin said it was time for the PM to set out 'how much UK taxpayers' money is he willing to hand over to the EU in order to sign up to its protectionist demands'.
47% : But Sir Keir insisted that Britain will not be 'paying into the EU budget in the way that EU members do', with payments instead tied directly to benefits.
47% : And she said the decision to permanently align with the EU's rules in areas like agriculture was a 'total capitulation', adding: 'The Prime Minister is going to pay the EU to abide by laws that we have no say on.'
45% : He said ministers had resisted pressure from Brussels to allow even more access for EU trawlers and that the deal should spell the end of the bloc's ban on British shellfish. Want more stories like this from the Daily Mail?
44% : The Prime Minister repeatedly ducked questions in Parliament about how much Britain will pay the EU for his deal amid speculation it will run to hundreds of millions of pounds a year.
44% : Sir Keir admitted that the deal will involve the UK making a 'proportionate contribution' to the EU but refused to say how much it would be.
44% : Tory MP Mark Francois said: 'The British people voted peacefully and democratically to leave the European Union, so why has the Prime Minister surrendered that right and made us a rule-taker from the EU once again?' Sir Keir described the warning as 'nonsense' and insisted that the UK 'will have a role in shaping any future rules'.
