Jeremy Corbyn: Labour Party backs new referendum to prevent a ‘damaging’ Brexit

CNN  

London CNN — The main opposition party in the UK is throwing its weight behind another referendum on Brexit. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said his party would support a move that would give the British public a chance to vote on Theresa May’s Brexit deal if Labour’s proposals were rejected by Parliament later this week. DANIEL LEAL-OLIVAS/AFP/Getty Images According to a statement, the Labour Party will put forward or support “an amendment in favor of a public vote to prevent a damaging Tory Brexit being forced on the country.” “One way or another, we will do everything in our power to prevent No Deal and oppose a damaging Tory Brexit based on Theresa May’s overwhelmingly rejected deal,” Corbyn was due to tell a meeting of Labour lawmakers on Monday night, according to the statement. May’s Conservative Party lambasted the Labour move, saying it wants “to betray the will of the British people & ignore the biggest democratic vote in our nation’s history.” “Labour have ripped up their promise and are now pursuing a divisive 2nd referendum that would take us back to square one,” the Conservatives tweeted. “If Parliament rejects our plan, then Labour will deliver on the promise we made at our annual conference and support a public vote.” A Labour Party press officer told CNN that there are still no details of what form the public vote would take or when it might take place.
