Europe

There is no doubt that Brexit has damaged the UK, and that we need to find ways of minimising that damage.

Once the Tories are defeated, the UK can sit down with our friends and neighbours in the EU and negotiate a closer, more pragmatic, mutually beneficial relationship, without losing our independence or sovereignty.

A closer connection with Europe is economically, environmentally and security wise superior to any other relationship we can have with any other international friends. True & Fair would pursue such a relationship to boost economic growth, collaborate on environmental policies and to ensure the security of our nation.
