EU to ‘play tough’ with Starmer in post-Brexit reset
The European Union will play tough with Sir Keir Starmer as he seeks to build closer ties with Brussels in his post-Brexit reset, top diplomats have said.
Sir Keir on Monday will become the first prime minister to attend a dinner with EU leaders since Brexit, and is expected to discuss a security and defence deal between the UK and its European allies.
But despite Sir Keir’s welcome efforts to engage with European leaders since being elected in July, the PM will be warned that he faces the same fate as Boris Johnson in talks with the bloc – with tough concessions demanded in return for any new relationship.
