The prime minister will travel to Brussels for a meeting with the European Commission president on Wednesday.
Asked whether he could give a concrete example of how the EU reset could improve life, such as bringing down the cost of roaming charges or pressing the EU to allow British citizens to use e-gates when they travel to the EU, Starmer said it was “too early to get into any specifics”. Starmer has put promoting growth and attracting business to the UK at the heart of his priorities, with many business leaders lobbying for an easing of post-Brexit trade barriers and border checks.
Starmer’s comments come after Pedro Serrano, the EU’s ambassador to the UK, this week suggested the commission may have softened its demands on what a youth mobility scheme could look like.
