The remarks of the UK's Labour leader come as the most recent Brexit survey found significant dissatisfaction with Britain's performance outside of the EU.

The UK's Labour leader Keir Starmer said, on Monday, that Britain will not rejoin the EU or its single market and customs union under Labour, despite polls indicating that most Britons believe Brexit has gone poorly.

The main opposition party's five-point plan to "make Brexit work" was unveiled in a speech by Starmer, who also warned that bringing up old arguments over the UK's exit would "be a recipe for more division" and "distract" from the problems facing the nation.

Furthermore, he told an audience at the Centre for European Reform think-tank that "under Labour, Britain will not go back into the EU. We will not be joining the single market. We will not be joining a customs union." 

"You cannot move forward or grow the country or deliver change or win back the trust of those who have lost faith in politics if you're constantly focused on the arguments of the past," Starmer added. 

His remarks come as the most recent Brexit survey found significant dissatisfaction with Britain's performance outside of the EU and the government's handling of it.

It is worth noting that a recent YouGov poll found that after an 11-month transition period, 54% of respondents thought it had been a terrible idea for the UK to leave the EU's trading terms and regulations at the end of 2020.

That included three in 10 so-called "Leave" voters, with 61% of respondents saying the government handled Brexit poorly.

It comes after a number of other recent polls with the same findings.
