UK May Not Hold Pivotal Brexit Vote, Says Fox.
Britain’s International Trade Secretary Liam Fox arrives in Downing Street in London on March 14, 2019,/ AFPBritish leader Theresa May’s government warned Sunday it might not have a planned Brexit vote this week unless it feels it could secure a win that avoids a lengthy delay to the EU pullout.
Parliament has twice resoundingly rejected the separation terms May reached with the other 27 EU leaders last year. This would mean “we will not leave the EU for many months, if ever,” May wrote in The Sunday Telegraph”. “It would be difficult to justify having a vote if you knew you were going to lose it,” International Trade Secretary Liam Fox told Sky News.
