Sir Keir Starmer is quizzed by GB News Chief Political Correspondent Katherine Forster on whether the Labour Party has abandoned working class communities and the democratic vote to leave the EU, in its pursuit of rebuilding relations with Europe.
The Prime Minister told GB News viewers: "On Brexit, the reason I reminded everyone what Nigel Farage said is because that was the promise he put to the country, that we'd be stronger, we'd be richer, we'd have lots of money for the NHS, immigration would come down and it all proved to be false, and he doesn't take any responsibility.
"He's not going back to the country now saying it was a good thing, you've all benefited. He'll talk about almost anything else, apart from the consequences of the one thing that he delivered for the country, Brexit. He doesn't want to talk about that, and there's a reason for that. It didn't help working people.
"It turned out what he said wasn't true, and that's why he doesn't want to talk about it now. But we have to talk about it now because we have to address the situation we're in. We have to give this country a stronger economy, a stronger defence and security set of arrangements, given the world we are living in.
"And that's why I said what I've said about being closer to Europe and this Government being defined by bringing Europe back together again, and Britain at the heart of Europe."
