The former Labour MP Chuka Umunna talks to BI about Change UK's upcoming fight in the EU elections and the 'tension' at the heart of the new party's ambitions.
Chuka Umunna speaks to Business Insider about the"tension" in what his new party Change UK is trying to achieve.The party is competing in the upcoming European elections against the major parties and Nigel Farage's new anti-EU Brexit Party.BRISTOL, UK — In recent weeks two new political parties have been launched in the UK, which between them could fundamentally alter the fate of British politics and Brexit.
Change UK on the other hand has had a much less successful beginning, registering in the low single figures in some national polls as it struggles to forge a unique identity. "The fact that using more than one colour is controversial tells you all you need to know about our broken politics." "But there's a key difference here. The Brexit Party is a nationalistic, xenophobic, opportunistic outfit which is solely fixed on our exit from the European Union."
Search for Change UK on Google and a link to the party's website does not appear on the first page of results, instead yielding many results for a charity of the same name. Search for the Brexit Party and the first link is the party's own webpage. However, he says it is"intrinsic" to the party's values to take a longer-term view, one that is focused on a broader set of policies.
