The United Kingdom will leave the European Union on October 31,
hopefully with a deal, Finance Minister Sajid Javid said on Monday.
“Hopefully we leave with a deal,” Javid told ITV.
“If we cannot strike a deal, I think it is important to leave in any
case and leave with no deal. It is not perfect but it is appropriate
that we leave on the 31st.”
Javid repeatedly refused to set out how the government could deliver
Brexit if there was no deal given a law, which demands the prime
minister delay Brexit in such a scenario.
“The legislation that parliament has passed of course has made things
more difficult, but we are clear our own policy is completely
unchanged, we will be leaving on 31st,” Javid said.
