Welsh Government would campaign for Remain in any future EU referendum

The Welsh Government would campaign for Remain in any future EU referendum, even under a Labour-led UK government, the first minister has said.

It comes after Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn refused to say if he would support Remain in a second Brexit vote.

Mr Corbyn’s plan to stop no-deal Brexit involves defeating Boris Johnson’s government in a no-confidence vote and becoming prime minister himself.

The UK is due to leave the European Union on 31 October.

Following the Leave vote in the 2016 referendum, the Welsh Government initially supported leaving the EU, while retaining close economic ties to the continent.
