UK Opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn has called on his Labour Party to support a plan to negotiate a new customs union as part of his Brexit vision. He said the scheme would boost manufacturing and ensure public contracts remained in the UK. Corbyn criticised a proposal by Prime Minister Theresa May, saying it would leave the country "in hock to Donald Trump". The European Union is set to launch an investigation into whether Google abused its dominance over online search results when it launched its own comparison shopping service last year. Many Labour lawmakers want a second referendum or for the UK to remain in a single market and customs union.
