Corbyn urges PM to take some tips from Klopp on how to get a good result in Europe

Jeremy Corbyn suggested the Prime Minister might take some tips from Jurgen Klopp on how to get a good result in Europe during PMQs today.

The Labour leader referenced Liverpool’s incredible comeback after the reds overturned a 3-0 deficit to Barcelona in the Champions League to progress to the final last night.

The win sets up the possibility of an all-English final in both the Champions League and Europa Cup which could be played out as Britain cements its political exit from the union.

But Theresa May has had a fraught time negotiating with the EU and, indeed, her own party. 

The PM and Corbyn have been working together on a compromised deal this week, although there has been no news of any headway so far.

In Parliament, Corbyn said: “Perhaps the PM could take some tips from Jurgen Klopp on how to get a good result in Europe?”

Theresa May replied: “Look at Liverpool’s win over Barcelona, what it shows is when everyone says it’s all over… we can still secure success”
