UK PM Burnham Open to Discussing EU Freedom of Movement and RelationsPreviousNext

UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has expressed openness to an honest discussion about restoring freedom of movement between the UK and the EU, acknowledging past challenges and changes in migration patterns. While he supports revisiting ties with the EU, including options like single market or customs union membership, any major changes are likely to wait until after the next general election. Burnham emphasized considering freedom of movement within a broader context of UK-EU relations, including data sharing and migration policies.
