LLANDUDNO (The Thursday Times) — Bartanvi wazir-e-azam Andy Burnham ne hafte ko kaha ke European Union se nikalne ke faisle ke baad ki dahai mein Bartania ne "jitna paya us se zyada khoya hai". Yeh bayan un ke Brussels ke daure se chand din pehle saamne aaya hai, jahan woh Europi bloc ke sath qareebi ta'alluqaat ke khwahan hain.
Burnham ne Llandudno mein Welsh Labour conference se khitab karte hue kaha: "Mere khayal mein Conservatives ne Bartania ko us se kahin zyada sakht aur karra Brexit diya jis ki logon ko 2016 mein vote dete waqt tawaqqo thi, kyunke unhon ne baad mein European Union ke sath hamare tamam pul jala diye."
Unhon ne kaha ke agle hafte Bartania aur European Union ke sarbarahi ijlas mein khuraak aur zara'at se mutalliq jis naye muahide ki unhein umeed hai, woh "khuraak ki qeematein kam karega" aur Wales ke kisanon aur samandari khuraak bar-aamad karne walon jaise bar-aamad kunindagan ki madad karega. Un ka kehna tha: "Zindagi ke akhrajaat kam karne ke liye hamein mushkil faisle karne ke liye tayyar rehna hoga."
Jumme ko Brussels mein sarbarahi ijlas
July mein wazir-e-azam banne wale Burnham 20 November ko Brussels mein European Commission ki sadr Ursula von der Leyen aur European Council ke sadr António Costa se mulaqat karenge. Is mauqe par khuraak aur mashroobat ke mayaraat, carbon ikhraj ki tijarat, aur naujawanon ki naql-o-harkat ki scheme se mutalliq muahidon par dastkhat ho sakte hain.
Hukoomat ka kehna hai ke in muahidon se maeeshat mein 0.4 feesad yani taqreeban 17 arab pound ka izafa ho sakta hai, aur Burnham keh chuke hain ke woh European Union ke sath ek mukhtalif taweel-ul-muddati ta'alluq ke "imkanaat ka jaiza" lenge.
Haal hi mein unhon ne kaha tha ke woh single market ya customs union mein dobara shamooliyat, ya "poori tarah" European Union mein wapsi ke liye bhi tayyar hain. Hafte ko un ka lehja zyada mohtaat tha. Unhon ne kaha ke woh Labour party ke manshoor ki "surkh lakeeron" ka ehtiram karenge, jo single market, customs union ya azadana naql-o-harkat ki taraf wapsi ko kharij az imkaan qarar deti hain, aur 2016 ke referendum ke nateeje ka bhi ehtiram karenge, aur yeh ke kisi bari tabdeeli ka faisla voters hi karenge kyunke "asal maalik" wohi hain.
Barnier ka kehna hai ke pasand ki cheezein chunne ki ijazat nahin
European Union ki senior shakhsiyat khabardar kar chuki hain ke Bartania ko un programmes tak rasai ki qeemat ada karna hogi jin mein woh dobara shamil hona chahta hai. European Union ke sabiq Brexit muzakarat-kaar Michel Barnier ne guzishta hafte kaha tha ke Bartania single market mein apni marzi ki sharait par wapas nahin aa sakta. Un ka kehna tha: "Pasand ki cheezein chun lene ki koi gunjaish nahin."
Llandudno ka yeh daura May mein Wales mein Labour party ki 27 saala hukoomat khatam hone ke baad Burnham ki pehli Welsh Labour conference thi. Ab Wales ki hukoomat Plaid Cymru chala rahi hai. Unhon ne arkaan se kaha ke party shayad "un usoolon se nazrein hata baithi jo ibtida mein ikhtiyaraat ki muntaqili ki bunyad bane the" aur waada kiya ke party "pehle se zyada mazboot ho kar wapas aayegi".
