Burnham to tell MPs rejecting closer EU ties would be 'dereliction of duty'

Andy Burnham will tell the Commons that rejecting closer EU ties would be a 'dereliction of duty', ahead of the rescheduled UK-EU summit.

• Burnham will tell MPs on Monday that Brexit has done more harm than good and that the status quo is not good enough for Britain.
• He will argue a new deal with the EU could help tackle illegal immigration and boost economic growth.
• Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch said reopening the Brexit debate would be 'a terrible idea'.
• The UK-EU summit, postponed after Keir Starmer's resignation, has been rescheduled for next month.
