UK can avoid euro but must accept free movement to rejoin EU, says former top Brexit negotiator – UK politics live

Good morning. Andy Burnham is back from the Commonwealth summit, but the Commons is on mini-recess until Tuesday, and there is not much in the political diary for today. But Nigel Farage, the Reform UK leader, will be holding a press conference, which means reporters will have the chance to ask him why his eve-of-poll “I don’t go with the consensus that Trump is going to get smashed” prediction turned out to be so wrong.

Another recent claim from Farage has been that, if the UK were to reapply to join the EU, it would have to sign up to the euro.
