Rishi Sunak's Brexit deal renegotiation can pave the way for Labour to agree closer EU ties if it wins power, a shadow minister has said.

BORDER checks brought in after Brexit will cost UK businesses £330 million a year, the UK Government has admitted. The figure – which a Tory minister claimed was actually a “saving” of £520m on the original plans – was disclosed in a letter to Labour MP and Labour Movement for Europe chair Stella Creasy.

A number of Labour MPs believe there is a palpable shift in public opinion on Brexit due to comparatively worse inflation figures in the UK to Europe and ongoing issues with the trade deal with Brussels.

PM criticised for boasting about trade benefits of new deal while denying same gains to rest of UK.

Stella Creasy compared governments claims of great Brexit benefits to “a toddler's imaginary friend. Ministers keep talking about them, but only they can see them”.

Controversial Tory bill set to inflict further damage on businesses, with no clues yet about incoming legislation.
