UK prime minister promises that post-Brexit the UK will be the 'global leader in free trade'.

Theresa May said the UK could become "the global leader in free trade" as she faced calls to clarify the government's post-Brexit vision.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said it was "unclear" what the government was "trying to do". He accused Mrs May of supporting "free trade dogma" rather than a policy that "values human rights and human dignity".

Workers must not pay the price of Brexit, says TUC

With politicians and the business world still grappling with the outcome of the EU referendum, it's little wonder that Brexit will dominate the forthcoming Trades Union Congress which kicks off in Brighton on Sunday.

"It's our first Congress post the Brexit vote so we want people focused on jobs, workers' rights and investment, because we are very clear that workers mustn't pay the price," says the TUC's general secretary Frances O'Grady.

Trades unions are worried about Brexit. Many fear that workers' rights will be sacrificed as the government seeks to entice investment into Britain in the years ahead.

Undoubtedly, UK Conservatives are ecstatic about Brexit. They get to jettison the labor, environmental and regulatory standards that went with being a member of the EU. Now they can pursue 'free trade' on their own and not have to worry about such standards getting in the way of profits.

No wonder British labor supported remaining in the EU. It knew the consequences of Brexit for British workers.
