Sir Keir Starmer: ‘We need a better Brexit deal’

Sky News published this video item, entitled “Sir Keir Starmer: ‘We need a better Brexit deal'” – below is their description.

Sir Keir Starmer has told Sky News the UK needs a “better” Brexit deal and has said a government under his leadership would renegotiate with the EU.

Reacting to the news that key car manufacturer Stellantis has called for a renegotiation due to the “threat” posed to its business, the Labour leader said the UK needs “a better deal than the one that we’ve got”, adding that supply chain issues also need improving.

“Is the Brexit deal we’ve got working well? No it isn’t, and we need to improve on that,” he said.

Asked directly by Ian King if Labour would renegotiate the deal, Sir Keir said: “Yes, we want a closer trading relationship.”

However, when asked if he would seek to re-join the single market, Sir Keir said: “No, I don’t think we should re-join either the EU generally or the single market, but I do think we should break down barriers.”
