Sir Keir Starmer says there is 'no case' for rejoining the EU single market, despite calls from Sadiq Khan

He added that "more radical thinking is required if we are to energise our economy through these stormy waters" and that single market membership would resolve the issue surrounding the Irish border and promote Britain's European "credentials".

And while he admitted the free movement of people required under single market rules produced "understandable reservations" regarding benefit claims, he said the issue was not "insurmountable". "If joining the single market results in strengthening our economy, easing the cost-of-living crisis, settling the Irish problem at a stroke and promoting our European credentials as we take an ever greater lead in Ukraine, would it not be churlish to face this reality?" He wrote in the House magazine.

Commons Foreign Affairs Committee chairman Tom Tugendhat said: "Let's plan for the future and stop looking back. This decision is made."

Liar liar

Tell us how to Make Brexit Work then Starmer, seeing as you know better than us or Sadiq Khan....

No case? Of course there is a case to argue, for or against. Pretending it doesn't exist insults our intelligence, like much of the original referendum debate. Being silenced by fear of ERG spectres is just another stab in the back for political honesty.

No case? If he can’t see the case; if the case isn’t blindingly obvious to him, then he had no right to be sitting on the opposition benches!

Well he does want to be PM!!👍👍
