“Starmer sabotages Burnham on Brexit” is the Daily Telegraph’s lead story. It writes that Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer “has raised the prospect of rejoining the EU” while Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham “seeks to keep Leave voters on side”, despite his “previous desire to reverse the 2016 referendum”. Sir Keir has been seeking closer ties with the bloc but has stuck to Labour’s election manifesto pledges to “stay outside the EU”, with “no return to the single market, the customs union, or freedom of movement”.
“I won’t walk away” is how the Daily Mirror quotes Sir Keir in its headline, describing his message to Labour colleagues as “defiant”. It reports the prime minister “rejects call to set out departure timetable”, despite pressure from some Labour MPs and senior ministers. The front page also embeds a photograph showing Alan Titchmarsh, David Beckham and King Charles III at the Chelsea Flower Show, with the caption “best of buddies”.
