'Reckless' Boris Johnson plans to pass law which puts a no-deal Brexit in 2020 firmly back on the table
Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson leaves after a news conference at the European Union leaders summit dominated by Brexit, in Brussels, Belgium October 17, 2019.Boris Johnson has put the prospect of a no-deal Brexit firmly back on the table, by introducing a legal provision making it illegal for the UK to extend trade negotiations with the EU beyond 2020 when they are scheduled to finish.
The move was branded "reckless and irresponsible" by Labour's shadow Brexit secretary Keir Starmer, while Liberal Democrat co-leader Ed Davey said it would "send the country straight off the no-deal cliff." That is despite a warning from Michel Barnier, the EU's chief Brexit negotiator, that striking a "comprehensive" free-trade deal between the EU and UK in 11 months next year will be impossible.
A Downing Street source said: "Last week, the public voted for a government that would get Brexit done and move this country forward and that's exactly what we intend to do starting this week." Labour's Keir Starmer said: "This is typical of the reckless and irresponsible behaviour we have come to expect from Boris Johnson 's Government.
