UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham says Brexit has done “more harm than good” and is looking at ways for the UK to strengthen its relationship with the European Union. Speaking to delegates at the Labour Party’s annual conference in Liverpool, he argues the decision has had negative effects for Britain.

Burnham says he will set out different options before seeking consensus on what the UK’s future relationship with the EU should be. RTE notes that his comments come as he faces pressure from some within Labour to commit to rejoining the EU, after he said he would consider all possibilities for a closer arrangement.

The outlets also provide context about how divisive the EU membership issue has been in Britain, referencing the 2016 referendum in which voters narrowly backed leaving the EU. Across the coverage, the core focus is Burnham’s assessment of Brexit’s impact and his pledge to examine alternative paths toward deeper EU cooperation.
