Fears intensify over Keir Starmer's fishing 'Brexit betrayal' at UK-EU summit
A row over EU demands on fishing rights has been blamed as negotiations over Keir Starmer's post-Brexit reset went down to the wire ahead of Monday's summit.
Sir Keir Starmerâs bid to secure a new deal with the EU has gone âdown to the wireâ with talks continuing overnight ahead of a major summit with the bloc on Monday. Fishing was understood to be a key sticking point in the negotaitions, with the EU demanding improved access to UK waters.
The talks include an expected announcement on defence and security, which could feature an agreement allowing British firms access to a 150 billion euro (ÂŁ125 billion) EU defence fund. Labour is also set to âsurrender control of our countryâ and accept EU rules on food, Brexiteers have warned.
