Speaking in the debate Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi MP said “Like the vast majority of MPs, I voted against the Prime Minister’s half baked, botched Brexit deal. For more than 2 years of negotiations, Theresa May has ignored opposition parties’ perspectives and that is why we as a nation are in a complete mess. We urgently need a Labour Government to solve the crisis facing our country”.
