2019

In February 2019, Drew gave a speech against Prime Minister Theresa May's deal to leave the EU, saying he feared Brexit would "become one of the biggest domestic policy disasters this country has known."

He challenged Carmichael again at the 2017 general election and regained it with a 9.3% rise, securing a narrow majority of 687 over the Conservatives on a 77% voter turnout. Following his return to the Commons, he was appointed as Shadow Farming and Rural Affairs Minister on 3 July 2017 by Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.
