Buoyed by growing tensions between Washington and the UK over the war in Iran, Britain’s anti-Brexit prime minister is dragging the country closer to the European Union at a quicker rate than ever.
Keir Starmer is now even planning to allow the UK to be subject to new EU laws without Parliament—and, by extension, the public—having a vote each time. This would take place under legislation, expected to be introduced later this year, aligning Britain more closely with Brussels’ single market.
The Labour PM has long insisted that the UK will not rejoin the single market—or, indeed, the customs union. It appears that this law would allow him to circumvent this pledge in all but name.
Reform leader Nigel Farage described this potential move as “a direct betrayal of the Brexit referendum and a total breach of the government’s manifesto promises,” adding:
The British people didn’t vote to become rule-takers, and we will fight this every step of the way.
The sovereigntist Bruges Group think tank also said: “The continental obsession with ever closer union does not serve British interests. Nor does blindly following rules made in Brussels, for Brussels.”
Even the pro-EU Liberal Democrats, which supports a closer alignment with the Brussels bloc, have warned against a move that could “cut Parliament out of the loop,” saying this would be “wrong and undemocratic.” But the government appears unperturbed and insists that it “is in the UK’s best interest” to be more tied to Europe.
