Labour leadership jostling puts Brexit back under political spotlight

Wes Streeting, former Health Secretary, stated that leaving the European Union was a "catastrophic mistake" during a conference in London. He announced his intention to challenge Sir Keir Starmer for the Labour leadership. In response, Conservative Party Chairman Kevin Hollinrake criticized Streeting's comments, claiming Labour was focusing on Brexit instead of addressing families' and businesses' concerns. Andy Burnham, Mayor of Manchester, was also questioned about his stance on Brexit as he prepares for a by-election in Makerfield.
