Brexit: No case for UK returning to EU, Labour leader Starmer says

In a speech at pro-EU think tank the Centre for European Reform, Sir Keir rejected that approach, arguing it would be a "recipe for more division".

He added: "There are some who say, 'We don't need to make Brexit work. We need to reverse it'.

"I couldn't disagree more, because you cannot move forward or grow the country or deliver change or win back the trust of those who have lost faith in politics if you're constantly focused on the arguments of the past."
