NextImg:Keir Starmer promises EU reset will be 'good for our borders' - despite Brexiteers warning it'll 'open the floodgates'

Sir Keir Starmer has promised his EU reset will be "good for our borders" despite warnings that the Prime Minister will soon "open the floodgates" to tens of thousands of migrants.

As part of a deal, which will be set to be announced on Monday, young Europeans are expected to be able to live and work in the UK.

The EU has been pushing for a Youth Mobility Scheme for more than a year, with Brussels still pushing for the programme to allow young migrants aged 18 to 30 to stay in the UK for up to three years.

Labour's Europe Minister Nick Thomas-Symonds argued the reset will see Britain "standing side by side with the EU" but insisted the Government was not preparing the relitigate the Brexit debate.

Discussing before the final day of negotiations, Starmer explained that the deal "will be good for our jobs, good for our bills and good for our borders".

He said: "That's what the British people voted for last year, and it's what my Government will deliver."

However, the Prime Minister is facing a Brexit backlash ahead of Monday's UK-EU summit.

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp said: "This scheme could open the floodgates to tens of thousands or more flooding into the country, including people who recently entered Europe illegally and then got citizenship."
