“We need to leave the European Union but it is good for our economy - they're our biggest market - that we stay as close as we can”

“We've got to a stage where we feel that any deal is so controversial and may well be so far from what people voted for when they voted to leave, that we think that it is probably appropriate… that we say to the people, 'Is this what you wanted?'

“We have to negotiate a new agreement. That, we think, is likely to be a customs union that will look pretty much like the current customs union.”

“lead the campaign to remain”

“Yesterday’s motion gave us the opportunity to send the opposite message to the world … that, while Saudi Arabia will remain a valued strategic, security and economic ally in the years to come, our support for their forces in Yemen must be suspended until the alleged violations of international humanitarian law in that conflict have been fully and independently investigated. And until the children of Yemen have received the humanitarian aid that they so desperately need.”

“We cannot turn the clock back and run the Brexit vote again. We have been given our instructions by the British people and we must act on them.”
