The prime minister said his Brexit reset would boost the economy by £9 billion a year after he negotiated an end to checks on British food exports to the continent and linked British and European electricity markets. He said the deal was a “win-win”. But Starmer faced claims that he had “surrendered” to Brussels by accepting last-minute French demands on fishing that would give EU fleets access to UK waters until 2038. • The winners and losers of the UK-EU post-Brexit deal Kemi Badenoch, the Conservative leader, described the agreement as a “total sell-out” while Nigel Farage, the leader of Reform UK, claimed it would result in the “end of the fishing industry”. The majority of business organisations welcomed the deal.
