LABOUR chairman Ian Lavery has vowed to campaign for a Brexit deal that will enable the party to “deliver radical change” in government.

In a Twitter video posted on Tuesday, Mr Lavery said that the Tories have “failed on Brexit” and that the debate has been “hijacked by those who want to maintain the status quo or unleash a disaster capitalism that will put our health service up for sale.

 

I can confirm that I would campaign and vote to leave the European Union with a Labour deal that protects jobs, the economy and our rights at work.

If you want to remain in the EU, or leave with a deal that protects jobs, the economy and our rights at work, then vote Labour. pic.twitter.com/ZC390x6O0j
