Senior German Social Democrat backs Labour call for second Brexit referendum

BERLIN (Reuters) – A senior member of Germany’s Social Democrats (SPD) said on Tuesday that he backed a call by Britain’s Labour Party to hold a second Brexit referendum, adding that such a vote could prevent Britain exiting the EU chaotically without a deal.

“In the best case scenario, a second referendum could open up the possibility of an exit from Brexit i.e. Britain remaining in the EU,” he added.
