Burnham says Brexit hasn't given Britain control

Burnham says Brexit hasn't given Britain control

Andy Burnham told Labour's conference that Brexit has not given Britain control, saying the country had lost some control over both its economy and immigration. He said small boat arrivals were down 40% on last year and net migration down more than 80% from its peak, praising Shabana Mahmood. He thanked migrants who contribute, while saying he understood anger about Channel crossings.
