Keir
Starmer MP, Labour’s Shadow Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, commenting on latest round of
negotiation talks between David Davis and Michel Barnier, said:
“Once
again, there has been no acceleration in the Brexit talks. With the December
deadline just weeks away, the British people and businesses are no clearer
about what the next phase will look like or how it will affect them.
“Both sides
need to work flat out between now and the next EU Council meeting to ensure
sufficient progress can be made and the talks can move to the next phase.
Labour are committed to a Brexit deal that puts jobs and the economy first.
Failure to reach an agreement would be catastrophic for people’s living
standards. The longer there is no progress in the Brexit talks, the greater the
risk of no deal.”
