Lib Dem leader in fiery TV clash with Ed Balls over Brexit

Ed Davey repeatedly refuses to say whether he wants UK to rejoin EU

Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey refused to say whether he want the UK to rejoin the EU in a feisty TV clash with Ed Balls over Brexit.

The former Labour minister and Good Morning Britain host pointed out that the Lib Dem website states they stand for “ultimately rejoining the EU”.

Mr Balls challenged Mr Davey to say whether he would push Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer to reverse Brexit as part of any coalition deal in the event of a hung parliament.
