May refusing to budge on Brexit customs union, says Labour
Shadow business secretary warns plan to bring PM’s deal back to Commons ‘dangerous’
The government is refusing to budge on Labour’s central demand for a permanent customs union in cross-party talks on Brexit, according to Rebecca Long-Bailey, the shadow business secretary.
In interviews broadcast on Thursday, she also warned the government’s plan to put May’s withdrawal agreement back before parliament without first reaching agreement with Labour was a “dangerous” stunt.
