Brexit: Labour to support Norway-style EU proposal

Shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry said Labour was"trying to pull the House of Commons together".

When asked if she was compromising on freedom of movement, she said"we are trying to pull the House of Commons together". The cabinet is now split over whether to move to a softer deal that could mean including a customs union in her plan.It comes as the Tory Chief Whip criticised the government for not making it clear the UK would"inevitably" have to accept a closer relationship with the EU after Brexit.

He did not choose motions calling for a unilateral exit to the backstop, to leave on 12 April without a deal, to hold a referendum in the case of no-deal or to rejoin the European Free Trade Association.MPs are now debating the proposals until 20:00 BST, after which - as with the indicative votes last week - MPs will be given a piece of paper listing all the options and tick"yes" or"no" on as many as they want.

He said the UK would have to follow rules set by the EU, adding:"It's time we went back to a proper Brexit."

Why is Norway-style anti semitic also?

Once again labour will ignore what the peoples asked for and betray them , just like the majority of mps .

Haha everyone one of Labour front bench appears to be supporting something different. Dear God help us.

They would that means we don’t exit.

A closet Tory

👎

UK isn’t Norwayesque in any way shape or form. Why leave the EU if this is the alternative? Completely daft. Brexit

Does the Norway option include freedom of movement for Merkels gimmegrants? If so that's not going to be accepted by leave voters.

Will not respect their Manifesto but even she thinks it is better than her leaders plan on supporting a Venezuelan style future

Are you listening UKLabour voters?

Is that Janis Joplin?

That's in support of free movement. Their betrayal all but complete.

Absolutely no leave voter will want that it's not even an option. If that's all they have its pathetic it's either no deal and leave or stay as is. If the referendum had swung the other way they wouldn't be looking to water down what we have now. Betrayal.

I didn’t realise the EU had indicated this was an option? 😏

Think labour are selling this Country short. All Corbyn wants is a general election & thinks he's gonna get voted in. I think not matey. You've helped destroy this Country just as much as the conservatives have.

How much is that going to cost us?

Another day of political constipation in the UK government BrexitShambles Brexit 💩🤪

This will be a rubbish deal.

It should really be called new modern labour as they have no resemblance of what a Labour Party means to working class. They are losing millions of voters

I'm afraid that says it all about Labour. Out of touch Out of date and run by muppets.

Vote no to all but new referendum or revoke of article 50!

Get a norway plus without freedom of movement you may be on to a winner.

Bye Bye

You know damn well if the BBC are promoting this it's going to be right up there with the ultimate in shite.

Just remain in another guise then.

Clowns.

/ Labour 🙇🏽‍♀️👎?

Labour are a joke

BENEFITS_NEWS Oops dividing from Europe has not made them stronger, only oil drilling has.

Is that a pic of Thornberry trying to get an even larger silver spoon in her mouth?

Labour stance still pay billions into Eu, in a customs union still and have freedom of movement, on the plus side we won’t have a say on the creation of Eu rules that we will have to abide by. Labours stance is an utter betrayal, they just hope to damage the government, betrayed

UKLabour playing pick n' mix with the future of the UK; they act to gain political advantage over the Government, but have so far not come up with their own answers to how to find a solution that is acceptable to the EU, HoC, and to the UK Electorate. Parliament Brexit

Idiot

Tossers,the lot of em

Why did you choose this photograph

Bloody ridiculous. Do what we asked for .listen to ppl

Labour change their policies like the wind changes direction every 2 minutes

Idiots.... basically remain but pretend to leave but end up with something worse than no deal. What a swindle.... democracy? They’re having a laugh

If Norway deal means freedom of movement and contributions to EU but without any of the benefits of being in EU why would you want to vote for it. Either stay in or get out with no further financial commitments and no further requirement to be told what to do.

This may not go down well in many Labour held leave constituencies who knows,

What is a Norway style?....we all Ski everywhere and pay £12 a pint?

Zzz

Because Labour has absolutely no original ideas of their own.

Amazing. literally the only two reasons people voted for Brexit was to stop free movement and paying the EU. That has to be a bigger slap in the face for brexit voters than having another referendum! 😂

Oh, FFS, a big nothing, apparently=Brexit.

Changed their minds again then

No deal now. Negotiate later, a much stronger position.

Eddie Izzard has let himself go a bit

What has Labour become. I hate Labour

There’s labour at it again with the purse strings Norway pay more per head than we do and we’re in the eu !

Thornberry clearly wants to have her cake and eat it 🍰 BrexitBetrayal This was NOT in the Labour manifesto: (WorkingClass) patriots will ditch them.

Labour will support it, as it isn't BrExit. Under the Common Market 2.0 proposal, the UK would leave the EU, but retain freedom of movement and make contributions to the EU Budget.

EU won't grant SingleMarket membership without FourFreedoms: these directly contradict central tenets of official Leave campaign (VoteLeave) ~ main reasons Leavers voted to Brexit e.g. to end FreeMovement. Parliament will be dissolved if it attempts such BrexitBetrayal.

At 16:49 they do...try again at 17:00..probably leave no deal by then....

In theory everyone’s happy. In fact no one’s happy!

Twits!! (Miss-spelling)

Wonder how many seats that’s lost them in the north?

Democracy is fucked in the UK. What is the point in elections?

Labour should push for NoBrexit and not worry about any Deals as there is or will never be a deal that will be as good as what we’ve already got with the EU! PutItBackToThePeople

ukip or brexit party wins the next election then ....we the people will be heard,one way or another.

Pointless Brexit then, much better to Remain.

Meanwhile: 'Norwegian PM to UK: Why would you want our EU deal?'

I couldn't care less, Irish in Brussels, I have had enough!
