Labour\u2019s new position on Brexit, to be articulated in a speech<\/a> this morning by Jeremy Corbyn, is \u201csnake oil\u201d that would put one of the greatest prizes of leaving the EU out of reach, said Brexit Secretary David Davis.<\/p>\n

Writing in the Telegraph,<\/a> he condemned Corbyn\u2019s policy of negotiating a \u201cbespoke\u201d customs union with the EU<\/a>. \u201cLabour may think they have stumbled across a simple solution to Brexit, but there is a lesson they are yet to learn: If it looks like snake oil, and it smells like snake oil, don\u2019t expect it to make you feel better,\u201d wrote Davis.<\/p>\n

\u201c[It] would prevent us from signing economy-boosting, job-creating free-trade deals with other countries around the world. This is one of the central prizes of Brexit,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

Defending the policy on BBC Radio 4\u2019s Today Program, Shadow International Trade Secretary Barry Gardiner said it would reassure businesses worried about uncertainty.<\/p>\n

\u201cBusinesses have been demanding for months now \u2014 just give us clarity we need to get our supply chains in order,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Gardiner described the policy as \u201ca customs union between the EU and the U.K. where we together decide those third party countries where we have tariffs and quotas,\u201d and said it was \u201cabsolutely not\u201d another form of having cake and eating it.<\/p>\n

Asked why Labour was not backing single market membership \u2014 something that many businesses are demanding too \u2014 Gardiner said Labour had decided it was inconsistent with the referendum vote to take back control of laws, money and immigration. \u201cThe British people clearly voted against what is the project of ever closer union,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Also speaking to BBC, Energy Minister Claire Perry said: \u201cWe in the government know that we have to deliver \u2026 a sensible Brexit.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe cannot be in the customs union and secure the trade deals that we need,\u201d she added. \u201cWhile we get on with Brexit, Labour can do its Brexit Hokey Cokey, whatever they think they need to do today. It lets down the people who voted for them, it lets down the majority of the people who voted for Brexit.\u201d<\/p>\n
