Keir Starmer MP, Shadow Minister for Leaving the European Union, commenting on reports of Boris Johnson’s views on freedom of movement, said:

“Boris may find his own running commentary amusing, but this is no way to approach the most serious set of challenges Britain has faced for generations.

"Day by day more inconsistent fragments of the Government’s non-strategy for Brexit are slipping out.

"The Prime Minister needs to get a grip, end this confusion and publish a clear plan and strategy of Brexit.

"Otherwise we’ll see the continuation of this fiasco for the next two years.”
