While in the past, Nigel Farage has suggested it could mean “the end” of Britain\u2019s fishing industry, and ex-Home Secretary Suella Braverman has labelled it a “betrayal of democracy” and “an insult” to 17.4 million Brexit voters.<\/p>\n
Now, a Cabinet Office source has told GB News that Reform and the Conservatives should “get a new gig”, adding that it is “not 2016 anymore”.<\/p>\n
“Very bitter, very sad, from Tories and Nigel Farage,” the source said.<\/p>\n
“They want to rip up a deal that benefits jobs and bills in the United Kingdom, and all because they are incapable of bringing themselves to have any relationship with Europe.<\/p>\n

Because that is what independent, sovereign nations do.”<\/p>\n Labour also said the deal would almost \u00a39billion into Britain’s economy.<\/p>\n “We have reset our relations with the EU – our closest partner and biggest market – to support British businesses, back British jobs, and put more money in people\u2019s pockets,” a Government spokesman said.<\/p>\n “Our agreement will help make food cheaper, slash red tape, open up access to the EU market and add nearly \u00a39billion to the UK economy.”<\/p>\n![\"\"\/](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1759732632_634_image.jpg\")
