UK to publish PM May’s Brexit plan that eurosceptic ministers protested against

Hindustan Times  

British Prime Minister Theresa May will publish details on Thursday of her long-awaited Brexit plan to restart talks with the European Union, after facing down a revolt by eurosceptic ministers that could still unseat her. But the plan has caused outrage among eurosceptic members of May’s Conservative party, and Raab’s predecessor David Davis and foreign minister Boris Johnson dramatically quit this week in protest. But Johnson, a leading Brexit campaigner, said following EU rules without being able to alter them risked consigning Britain to the “status of colony”, and said it looked like a “semi-Brexit”. This last would likely be unacceptable to Brussels, thus killing May’s plan, but Rees-Mogg told AFP his aim was only “to help the government stick to some of its earlier promises”.
