Brexit: New referendum 'least worst option', says Tom Watson

In a speech to the Centre for European Reform, the deputy leader said Labour must be honest about the EU's strengths."Pro-European is who we are and who we have always been. Our members are Remain. Our values are Remain. Our hearts are Remain.

"Our future doesn't need to be Brexit. We can change our future. We can put Britain back at the heart of Europe again.

"We can be proud of leading the fight for a fairer and stronger future, together. But we can only achieve this future if Labour fights for it and champions it. It's time we do that."
