LABOUR leader Sir Keir Starmer has boasted he will reopen Brexit talks if he becomes the next Prime Minister.

He confirmed he would go back to Brussels cap in hand for a closer relationship with the EU.

Announcing he would plead for yet more negotiations, Sir Keir said: We need a better Brexit deal. We want a close trading relationship.

But while he said theres more we can do with the EU he insisted he did not want to rejoin the club or the Single Market.

But the Tories accused the opposition boss and former Remain stalwart of surrender.

They hit back: Sir Keir Starmer wants to rig British elections so EU nationals can vote for the British government.

It is obvious why. He wants to re-open Brexit, hand power back to Brussels and surrender to uncontrolled, unlimited immigration. After all, this is what hes campaigned for his entire political career.

The row comes just weeks after No10 ended two years of negotiations with Brussels that concluded with the Windsor Framework, which will ease Northern Ireland trade barriers.

But Sir Keir said: I don't think many people look at that deal and think its working very well.

Last night, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak slammed critics of Brexit, saying he still believed in the project.

Speaking to reporters on his private jet on the way to Japan for the G7 summit, he said: I voted for Brexit, I believe in Brexit.

I am actually delivering the benefits of Brexit as opposed to talking about it.

In a dig at Nigel Farage, who said Brexit has not worked, Mr Sunak insisted: I feel pretty confident we are delivering the benefits of Brexit from an economic perspective the track record is very clear on that.
