BRIGHTON: British opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said on Sunday his party would guide him on how to campaign in a second Brexit referendum, pledging to offer voters a choice between staying in the European Union and a “credible” deal.
Just weeks before Prime Minister Boris Johnson has vowed to leave the EU “do or die”, Labour, like the governing Conservatives, is deeply divided over Brexit, deepening uncertainty over Britain’s departure, the country’s biggest trade and foreign policy decision for more than 40 years. Asked whether Labour would campaign to remain in the EU or to leave with a deal, Corbyn told the BBC he would stage a special conference or meeting to determine his party’s stance.
Corbyn said his priority was making sure a no-deal Brexit would not happen after opposition lawmakers forced through legislation saying the prime minister must ask for a new extension from the EU if no deal is in place by Oct 19. Asked whether the government would consider suspending parliament for a second time – a move some have mooted as a way to force through Brexit on Oct 31 – Raab said “Let’s wait and see what the first judgment decides and then we’ll understand the lie of the land.”
