McDonnell: Election has made Brexit ‘a bit of a mess’

Labour Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell says the country is “in a bit of a mess at the moment” over Brexit, after the general election resulted in a hung parliament.

McDonnell, who retained his seat in Hayes & Harlington, said Labour were prepared to form a minority government following result and that they would seek to “change the tone” on Brexit.

“The style of negotiations isn’t the one where you bang the table and throwing tantrums in the way that we’ve seen from Theresa May – you seek to secure what is in the mutual interest.
