Jeremy Corbyn's detailed statement on this evening’s Brexit talks with the government

Labour's leader, Jeremy Corbyn has made a detailed statement on this evening’s Brexit talks with the government:

• He reiterates that Labour wants to see the prime minister adopt its five key points in order to reach a cross-party deal.

Today, I held a meeting of our shadow cabinet to discuss the Brexit talks with the government. The exchanges with the government have been serious but our shadow cabinet expressed frustration that the prime minister has not yet moved off her red lines so we can reach a compromise.

The key issues that we must see real movement on to secure an agreement are a customs union with the EU, alignment with the single market and full dynamic alignment of workers’ rights, environmental protections and consumer standards.
