Keir Starmer says Labour could back Boris' Brexit deal if they have a second referendum amendment

Keir Starmer says Labour could back Boris' Brexit deal if they have a second referendum amendment Labour is plotting to hijack Boris Johnson's Brexit deal this week with demands to hold a second referendum.

Sir Keir Starmer and John McDonnell said this morning that the party was likely to support an amendment for a second Brexit vote in Parliament in the coming days - along with "dozens" of others.

The party has pledged to try and wreck Boris' Brexit deal when it comes back to the Commons from tomorrow.

That could include amendments for a second vote, or ones for a customs union with the EU after Brexit.

Such a move would cause a huge headache for the Government, as MPs could be persuaded to back a softer version of Brexit.

And in a shock move, Sir Keir said if a second amendment passes then Labour could even back Boris Johnson's deal.

The PM has to push through the Withdrawal Act Bill before Brexit can happen on October 31.
