The UK Times (gated) interview with Prime Minister Starmer. From the report (bolding is mine):
- The prime minister is expected to announce broad plans for a youth mobility deal on Monday as part of a wider agreement with the European Union
- The deal will bring Britain into the closest alignment with the EU since Brexit and will cover trade, agriculture, security and defence.
- Starmer said that the deal, to be announced at a meeting at Lancaster House in London, would be a “really significant moment”. He added that the effects would be “measured in the pockets of working people” in the form of better job prospects and higher living standards.
As noted, The Times is gated but the link to the article is above. There is a lot more detail, if you can access it.
There are other reports that are not gated, but since the interview was with The Times they are not as detailed. Link here though:
- (Sky) The government is set to host EU leaders in London on Monday as part of its efforts to “reset” relations post-Brexit.
- (BBC) As well as youth mobility, issues such as fishing rights are also expected to be discussed during Monday’s meeting – the first since Brexit.
Starmer added that:
- “Nobody wants to relitigate the last nine years”
LOL. There are plenty of folks in the UK doing just that.
