Starmer Pushes for Closer UK-EU Ties

About this episode

Keir Starmer aims to strengthen UK-EU ties with Ursula von der Leyen, seeking to surpass basic deals and embrace closer alignment. Critics, however, warn of potential risks, including loss of control over laws, borders, and funds. Progress is being made in youth mobility, emissions trading, and food agreements, with both sides recognizing the benefits of closer cooperation, potentially involving adherence to EU rules and payments for access. Labour plans to introduce enabling laws for sector-by-sector links, while some advocate for bolder steps to mend frayed relations.
