PM defends ‘common sense’ EU deal as critics condemn ‘surrender’ to Brussels

  • Sir Keir Starmer sealed a new post-Brexit trade deal with the EU on May 19, 2025, at Lancaster House, London.
  • The deal arose from the UK government's aim to boost the economy and cut red tape while balancing backlash from Brexit supporters.
  • Key provisions include a 12-year extension allowing European fishing vessels in UK waters until 2038, dynamic alignment on rules, and a youth mobility scheme.
  • Starmer said the deal offers "unprecedented access to the EU market," lowers food prices, and cuts energy bills through cooperation, while critics call it a "surrender."
  • The agreement may strengthen trade and security ties but raises concerns about UK sovereignty and political backlash over closer EU rule alignment.
