Yesterday, I spoke in the House of Commons debate on the government’s Brexit deal explaining why I could not support it.
In my speech, I set out how the draft deal would have severe, long-term, risks for our economy and trust in our democracy. The deal would also stifle the positive opportunities of Brexit that inspired over 17 million people to vote to leave the EU in June 2016.
