EU Membership Referendum: Impact on the UK

Contribution

Let me just make one more point, and then I will take an intervention from the Labour Benches. We know the importance of food and energy security, and Ukraine, Moldova and others see their future in Europe, so why on earth does the UK not? Eighty per cent of our 16 to 24-year olds want not a customs union, but to rejoin the EU. Seventy-five per cent of Scots want to rejoin, because Brexit has been a failure.
