Sir Keir Starmer will next year try to reverse Brexit "stealthily", according to former Conservative Attorney General Sir Geoffrey Cox.
Cox told today's Chopper's Political Podcast he had been worried that the Brexit he helped to negotiate when he was in the Conservative government was "under threat".
He said: "I've been saying so for a very long time, that the instinct of Keir Starmer will be to reverse Brexit, but it won't be done openly, it'll be done by stealth, it'll be done gradually."

Elon Musk - the world's richest man - will donate some money to Nigel Farage's Reform UK party, one of Farage's key allies has said.
There is speculation that Musk could be about to donate after Farage appointed property billionaire Nick Candy as his party's treasurer.
Asked if Musk will donate Banks told GB News' Chopper's Political Podcast: "I'm sure he will do but not to the extent of £100 million, I don't think. No."
He added: "Dollars, pounds .... there's still a lot of money but I suppose he's got UK companies and that's traditionally it's acceptable to donate through that. Let's see what happens."

A Conservative MP has warned there will be ‘no going back’ if the controversial assisted dying bill passes its second reading in Parliament.
Tory grandee Bernard Jenkin went on to tell Christopher Hope that MPs still on the fence should vote against the bill. He said: “I think what I'd be inclined to say, if you're in doubt, then you probably have to vote against. Because once this has been passed, there will be no going back. There's no jurisdiction that's reversed.”

Brexit was a "great move" by the British people and Labour should "embrace" the opportunity of working with President-elect Donald Trump, a senior Labour peer has told GB News.
Lord Glasman, who founded the Blue Labour campaign group, also said that the "principle challenge to Labour " at the next general election "is going to come from Reform".
Blue Labour's influence on the party is growing in party because Sir Keir Starmer's chief of staff Morgan McSweeney worked closely with the group after the 2010 general election.

Paying out millions of pounds a day to house illegal migrants in hotels is an "absolute disgrace", one of the Labour party's rising star MPs has told GB News.
Chris Curtis, elected MP for Milton Keynes North in July's general election, said that he found it "offensive" that public money was being used to keep illegal arrivals in hotels.
Earlier this week, it emerged that the Government was continuing to house asylum seekers in hotels despite Labour’s manifesto pledge to end the practice which costs £7million a day.
Curtis told Chopper’s political podcast this week regarding the previous administration that there was “a massive black hole that lurks in the economy” and he added that “the most offensive one is hotel bills”.
He said: "We're taking hard earned taxpayers money out of their pockets. It's an absolute disgrace. We need to be shutting down those hotel bills. But you can't do that with a ridiculous Rwanda gimmick."

The Conservative Party Chairman has admitted it was a "mistake" removing Boris Johnson as leader. Speaking to Chopper' Political Podcast, Richard Fuller said: "At the time and still, I think removing Boris Johnson, whatever one might have thought about what went on or didn't go on at the time was a mistake.
And it was a mistake because that wasn't the question to be answered. If you wanted to change, you had to agree who the next leader was going to be. My personal view was also getting rid of someone who just won the general election was probably not going to end well, whatever happened."
