Leaving the EU: Negotiations

Debate between Baroness Chapman of Darlington and Gareth Snell

Tuesday 10th July 2018 Commons Chamber

[Jenny Chapman]

Our Front Benchers’ position is clear: we do not want an exit from Brexit. We respect the outcome of the referendum. I know that the Liberal Democrats do not approve of that position, but that is what it is.

[Gareth Snell (Stoke-on-Trent Central) (Lab/Co-op)]

My hon. Friend and her whole team have done a sterling job for the Labour Front Bench. While she is clarifying Labour party policy, could she also clarify from the Dispatch Box that it is not Labour policy to support a second referendum?

[Jenny Chapman]

I will go on to that later in my speech.
