Andy Burnham has agreed a draft deal with the EU to follow Brussels' rules on food and allow 'free movement' for younger citizens, it has emerged.

Ahead of a UK-EU summit, a 200-page draft text for a sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) agreement is reportedly being shared among the bloc's members.

Draft deals on emissions trading and a 'youth experience scheme' are also being circulated alongside a 15-page joint statement for EU leaders, according to the BBC.

The agreements are set to form part of the Prime Minister's Brexit 'reset', which he is hoping to finalise at the Brussels summit on November 20.

The centrepiece of Mr Burnham's deal is expected to be the SPS agreement, under which the UK will align with EU rules on food safety, animal and plant health.

Meanwhile, a new so-called 'youth experience scheme' will allow EU nationals under 30 to live, work and study abroad in the UK.

The same rights would be afforded to British citizens across the EU.

It has also emerged that the PM could agree to spending as much as £450million a year to give EU students cut-price tuition fees at UK universities as part of his plans.

Since Brexit, EU students in the UK have been charged higher international fees of between £11,400 and £38,000 a year for undergraduate courses.

This is compared to the lower domestic rate for British students of £9,790 a year.

But Brussels is determined to see EU students pay the same rate as British students while they study in the UK.

Mr Burnham has boasted the deals he is preparing to sign this month could add the equivalent of more than £10billion per year to the UK economy by 2040. 

But furious Brexiteers have warned against leaving Britain as a 'rule-taker', amid fears the Government will 'surrender' the freedoms won by the UK when it left the EU.

Speaking at a rally in central London on Tuesday morning, Tory leader Kemi Badenoch said: 'The reason why we left the EU was so we could make our own rules.

'But if what the Government is signing up to is just following EU rules, then what was the point of leaving?

'They are too scared to actually use the Brexit freedoms that we have.

'The free trade agreement that we have with the EU, like many others, is one that needs constant negotiating.

'So I want to see Labour negotiating and improving on deals with all countries, that's what you do when you have your own trade policy.'

Reform UK deputy leader Richard Tice said: 'One of the key benefits of Brexit was that Britain no longer had to adhere to ridiculous EU rules, standards and regulations. 

'Returning to any form of alignment with Europe would crush Britain's competitiveness and force us to surrender sovereignty over trade policy, putting trade deals worth hundreds of billions of pounds at risk.'

Ahead of the UK-EU summit, Mr Burnham has told MPs he will also be 'open to a discussion about our relationship with the EU in the longer term'. 

His remarks fuelled questions about the prospect of the UK returning to the EU, or adopting its freedom of movement rules for all citizens by rejoining the bloc's single market.

Despite saying in a recent newspaper interview that he wants an 'honest discussion' about the possibility of returning to free movement, the PM has since appeared to backtrack amid a revolt by some Labour MPs.

In an interview with ITV which aired on Tuesday, Mr Burnham said: 'I have not proposed freedom of movement coming back.

'I do believe that we should have an honest discussion with people about how immigration has changed since the Brexit vote because the shorter term migration of people coming from Europe and then going back has been replaced with long term settlement in bigger numbers, and that was the Boriswave.'
