Burnham promises 'serious dialogue' on EU ahead of reset summit

Andy Burnham promised a "serious dialogue" on the UK-EU relationship ahead of next month's reset summit, calling the current arrangement inadequate.

• Burnham told MPs that refusing closer EU relations would be a "major dereliction of duty," saying the status quo "is not good enough for Britain."
• The 20 November summit will seek deals on food, drink, youth mobility and emissions trading, which Burnham said could add £10bn a year to growth.
• Burnham clarified he does not believe Russian interference swayed the 2016 Brexit result, after saying on Sunday that Russia had interfered.
• Burnham said free movement was "not on the table" in EU talks but declined to rule it out beyond the next election.
• Burnham listed energy systems linking and deeper migration cooperation as items on the 20 November summit agenda.
• Burnham said the £10bn annual growth boost from the proposed deals could be achieved by 2040.
• Burnham argued Brexit had done more harm than good and said the time had come to face up to that reality.
• Burnham suggested Labour could offer an in-out referendum on EU membership in its next election manifesto.
• Burnham's revival of the Brexit debate drew criticism from opponents Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson.
