Sir Keir Starmer

Labour — Holborn and St Pancras

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 May 2025

Debate

UK-EU Summit

Contribution

The arrangement we got to yesterday with the EU has absolute clarity: there is no impediment to e-gates, which means that we can now work with member states to get them in place as quickly as possible. We have already started our work with them to get e-gates through. [Interruption.] We have now cleared the barrier and are getting on with it. For many years, we have had queues because of the Conservatives’ bad deal—so pipe down.
