The Daily Express calls Andy Burnham's EU food and drink deal a "Brexit betrayal" in its own headline voice, though Burnham says the deal is closer to the Brexit people voted for and the Food and Drink Federation quoted in the article welcomes easier trade. Its standfirst also says in its own voice that UK firms are "strangled" by taxes and red tape, adding a verdict on top of the attributed cost figures it reports later.

    “Brexit betrayal”

    Why this matters
    The Express calls the deal a "Brexit betrayal" in its own headline voice, not as any named critic's words.
    The impression it gives
    A reader takes it as a settled verdict that the agreement betrays the Brexit vote.
    The context
    This is a contested political judgement. Burnham argues the deal is closer to what people voted for. The industry quoted in the article welcomes easier trade.

    “UK firms strangled by taxes and red tape”

    Why this matters
    The standfirst says in the outlet's voice that firms are "strangled", a verdict word, not a description of the cost figures given later.
    The impression it gives
    A reader takes firms' choking under taxes and regulation as fact, not as an industry complaint.
    The context
    The article later gives attributed figures on energy prices and cost rises. "Strangled" adds the outlet's own verdict on top of them.
