Summary
Keir Starmer wants to move Britain even closer to the EU by aligning with single-market rules on food standards and carbon emissions. Not only that, but he also wants to do so using so-called “Henry VIII powers”, secondary legislation which could be approved without a Parliamentary vote.
Camilla is joined by Jacob Rees-Mogg, who cannot understand why the UK would want to return to the more heavily regulated world of Brussels when the country has benefited from the flexibility of not being in the bloc.
Elsewhere, Camilla and Jacob also discuss the findings of the Southport inquiry, with Axel Rudakubana’s parents blamed for not doing “what they morally ought to have done” by allowing his alarming behaviour to go unreported
🚨 LIVE EVENT: The Daily T will be going on the road to London (April 27), Cardiff (April 28), Warwick (April 29) and Worthing (April 30) ahead of May’s critical local elections, where you'll have a chance to put your questions to Camilla and Tim.
