Union leaders have backed Keir Starmer’s planned ‘reset’ of Brexit and predicted that it will help save the British car industry.
In an interview with The Independent, Paul Nowak, the general secretary of the Trades Union Congress (TUC), said he “absolutely” believed the policy would keep manufacturing and other jobs in the UK and prevent them being moved to the continent.
Mr Nowak also urged the new Labour government to deliver the “change” he said the public had voted for.
