A Eurosceptic lawmaker in British Prime Minister Theresa May’s Conservative Party said on Monday (1 April) he was worried that May could add a customs union to her Brexit deal with the European Union as a way to break the current parliamentary impasse, write James Davey and Elisabeth O'Leary.

“My concern is that the prime minister is more concerned to avoid a no-deal Brexit than anything else and therefore I am very concerned that she could decide to go for a customs union tacked on to her deal,” Jacob Rees-Mogg (pictured) said on LBC Radio.

“But if that happens people like me will just continue campaigning to get us out of the customs union.”
