Mr Douglas Alexander

Labour (Co-op) — Lothian East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 5 September 2024

Debate

UK-EU Trade

Contribution

My hon. Friend is already establishing herself as a powerful voice for all constituency interests in Clwyd East. Alas, the concerns that she raises are not limited to that constituency. That is why, as part of the broader resetting of our relationship with the European Union, we are determined to tackle barriers to trade such as those she describes in relation to farmers, including through the negotiation of a UK-EU veterinary agreement that will help to reduce unnecessary border checks.
