The Mayor of London has thrown his weight behind a second EU referendum, taking aim at the government’s Brexit negotiations for leaving the British public facing the option of a bad deal or no deal at all. Sadiq Khan - who advocated against a second vote in the wake of the 2016 referendum - told Andrew Marr on Sunday that the British public must be allowed to have a say in the outcome of Theresa May’s Brexit negotiations, “plus the option of staying in the EU”. “We have now reached a position where there are two outcomes as a consequence of the government’s negotiations,” the Labour politician said. “A bad deal - and by that I include leaving the EU without knowing the terms of the future relationship, a blindfold Brexit, - or no deal.”
