Nearly a decade after the British people voted to settle Brexit and take back control, Keir Starmer is re-opening the debate.
His EU deal breaks every promise Labour made – on laws, borders, farming, fishing, and defence.
This deal is not the future we were promised.

@Duane28782942 @BorisJohnson It was Labour, the Civil Service and the media that stopped anything that Boris wanted to change, he had no help in Hell🙈
The Conservatives were just doing ok, and sodding Labour got in and undid all the good!
Two-tier Keir is once again going back on his promises to the people of this country - by making us non-voting members of a two-tier European Union. Under this appalling sell out of a deal the UK will have to accept EU law on a host of measures from food standards to emissions trading.
We will have to accept whatever changes the EU decides to make to those laws.
We will have to accept the rulings of the European Court of Justice in the definition and enforcement of those laws. We will therefore lose our freedom to innovate in areas such as gene editing and much more besides.
We will lose much of our freedom to do proper free trade deals. Worst of all we will have no say whatsoever in making those rules and those laws and no ability to change them.
Two-tier Keir is the orange ball-chewing manacled gimp of Brussels. He has sacrificed UK fishing interests, handing over our seas to be plundered again - when under the current Brexit agreement we are on the point of taking back full legal control, next year, of every fish in our waters. He is clearly bent on signing up to a deal on free movement which could give 80 million younger EU nationals the right to come to this country. He appears from this document to be preparing to allow the EU to regain control of UK policy on state aids and competition.
Most bizarrely of all he has agreed that Britain will once again be paying countless millions of pounds into EU coffers - for the privilege of becoming the non-voting punk of the EU Commission! What have we got in return? Wishy washy EU promises to get rid of some of the vexatious and unnecessary bureaucracy that they have been using against British travellers and business - but no real guarantees that this will be enforced and above all no real guarantee on frictionless trade between GB and Northern Ireland, which should be entirely a matter for the UK and not the EU.
This deal is hopelessly one sided. It combines the vassalage of Chequers with the surrenderism of Chagos. Starmer promised at the election that he would not go back on Brexit. He has broken that promise as he broke his promise on tax.
This deal should not be signed, should not be ratified and should never come into force and if it is the next Conservative government should kick it out forthwith.
Listen to Labour laugh when I say the public want honesty from government. That says it all.
They can’t negotiate. They concede before talks even begin — then pretend tiny gains are historic victories.
Gave away UK territory in Chagos. Settled for scraps in US and India deals. Caved to unions. Cut pensioners’ winter fuel. Taxed farmers and small businesses.
Every deal is a disaster. Britain is losing with Labour.
@ukreloaded We thought he was a 🧸at first, and he but you are right he is more of a 😈in disguise!
Let u hope karma comes to the rescue pretty damn sooon🙏🏻
🚨BREAKING: James Corden is reportedly considering a bid to become Mayor of London.
I think Ant Middleton is a far superior choice of leader, personally.
Who's your pick?
Keir Starmer previously described the Tory government plan to remove asylum seekers in the UK to Rwanda as “unethical, unworkable and will cost a fortune”. Yet he’s now talking to nine different countries to do the same. On every single issue, his words just float with the wind.
