U.K. Labour Party Leader Jeremy Corbyn ruled out backing a new referendum on leaving the European Union, telling the Guardian he would prefer to renegotiate a customs arrangement with the bloc in a decision that disappointed some party members.
Corbyn, who has been pressed to back a grassroots effort for another referendum, said the House of Commons should proceed with its vote on Prime Minister Theresa May’s withdrawal measure, which is opposed by most parties and many of her own Conservative lawmakers.
