The UK promised to uphold high environmental standards after Brexit. But it has been reported that the UK is falling behind the EU or going backwards in this area. We believe fully aligning with the EU would restore protections and strengthen the UK’s environmental leadership.

Align foreign & trade policy with EU and set steps towards closer integration
The Government should formally reassess the UK’s foreign and trade strategy and commit to a much deeper political, economic and regulatory alignment with the EU, going beyond, what we consider vague, “closer ties” and setting out clear, time-bound steps for stronger integration.
Create a UK Rights Charter to replace the EU Charter
Create a single, modern UK Rights Charter to replace the protections lost after leaving the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. Rights are currently scattered across different laws, and a unified charter would clearly set out the protections people can rely on today.
Make Christmas Eve, New Year’s Eve & 2 January bank holidays & seek UK alignment
I would like Christmas Eve, New Year’s Eve and 2nd January made bank holidays and also for the UK Government to seek to unify all bank holidays throughout the year across the entirety of the UK by working with the Scottish and Northern Irish Governments.
