Any extension to #Brexit transition must end by next election - May's spokesman
Britain does not believe it will need an extension to the post-Brexit transition period but if there is one it should end before the next election due in 2022, Prime Minister Theresa May’s spokesman said this week, writes Elizabeth Piper.
The spokesman also said that the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement was linked to the future UK-EU relationship and if either side failed to honour the declaration on future ties there could be a suspension of parts of the exit deal, including payments.
