    Andy Burnham SCOLDED by Labour MP over Brexit reversal - 'Don't rip the country apart again!'

    Andy Burnham has been warned by a senior Labour backbencher "not to rip apart the whole country again" by trying to reverse key elements of the Brexit deal. Labour MP Melanie Onn, MP for Great Grimsby and Cleethorpes, also said that it was a "big trust issue" for the PM not to go back on the Brexit commitments in the party's 2024 general election. Ms Onn - an elected member of the party's ruling National Executive Committee - was the first Labour backbencher to break cover this week to express concern about the party advocating ripping up part of the UK's Brexit deal with Brussels. Mr Burnham raised the prospect of the UK signing up again to EU freedom of movement in a weekend newspaper interview as part of a deal to get closed to the trading bloc.
