Brexit has done ‘significantly hurt’ to the UK economy, Sir Keir Starmer warned today as he pushed a ‘closer relationship’ with Brussels under his premiership. In a speech in London today he said the country had to ‘face the reality’ of how Britain was faring outside the bloc. It came after it was reported that the PM’s chief economic adviser, Minouche Shafik, pitched rejoining the customs union to get the UK’s economy growing. Sir Keir and European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen restated the need to swiftly implement the post-Brexit reset deal earlier his month. But the PM’s efforts were dashed last week when talks on the UK joining the European Union’s flagship £130 billion defence fund failed. Was brexit a blunder for UK ?
