Copeland MP Trudy Harrison will be voting for the Prime Minister’s new landmark deal for Brexit on Saturday following agreement between the UK and the EU.
Mrs Harrison said: “Boris Johnson, against the odds, has managed to open the Withdrawal Agreement, get rid of the backstop and alter the political declaration – and has done it in 85 days.
“Workers, social and environmental rights will remain as the previous Agreement and we have a green light from the EU to develop our own world-beating Free Trade Agreement.
“I will be enthusiastically supporting our Prime Minister to get Brexit done and will be voting for this deal on Saturday. I hope the DUP come onside as this is a very good deal for Northern Ireland.”
Mr Johnson said: “We’ve got a great new deal that takes back control – now Parliament should get Brexit done on Saturday so we can move on to other priorities like the cost of living, the NHS, violent crime and our environment.”
