Starmer says UK can improve on ‘botched’ Brexit deal with EU

Britain’s new Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday promised to get a better deal with the European Union on post-Brexit trading rules than a “botched deal” secured by former prime minister Boris Johnson.

“We think we can get a better deal than the botched deal that Boris Johnson bought home and we will work on that,” Starmer told journalists in Belfast as part of a tour of the four nations of the United Kingdom.
