In London is still no solution to the dispute over the exit agreement with the EU. Minister Barclay dismissed allegations that the government games on time – and warned of the consequences of the Blockade in the Parliament.
The British Brexit-Minister Stephen Barclay has warned the lower house that it could have at the end only the choice between a disordered Brexit and remaining in the EU. “If we don’t get consent to the withdrawal agreement, the house of Commons in the core of the question is this: is it a ‘No Deal’, or will it blow the outlet,” said Barclay to the members of the upper house.
Barclay stressed that the government play for time. Because you need time for the preparation of a disordered Brexit, there should be no approval for the EU negotiated contract.
