The claim that Labour is planning to join the EU’s refugee quota scheme is “complete nonsense,” party leader Sir Keir Starmer said on Sunday.
It follows Home Secretary Suella Braverman’s accusation that Labour was planning to let the UK become a “dumping ground” for 100,000 migrants from the EU each year after Sir Keir told The Times of London a “quid pro quo” arrangement of migrant quotas “would be part of any discussions and negotiations with Europe.”
