British Prime Minister Boris Johnson wants to promote the Brexit trade deal as a historic opportunity and national fulfillment in front of Parliament in London. The central purpose is “to achieve something that the British people in their hearts always knew could be done,” Johnson said Wednesday, according to excerpts released ahead of the speech. It is about working together on friendly terms with our European neighbors and doing business, but at the same time maintaining sovereign control over the laws and “our national destiny”.
“Now we will open a new chapter in our national history,” says Johnson. “This law shows how Britain can be European and sovereign at the same time.” The Prime Minister wants to emphasize the close friendship with Europe: complete detachment was never an option. “What we were looking for was not a rupture, but a solution, a solution to the old and nagging question of Britain’s political relations with Europe that weighed heavily on our post-war history.”
According to the excerpt from the speech, Johnson also wants to address the difficult relationship with the EU. “At first we were very far away, then we became a half EU member, sometimes obstructive,” he says there. “With this law we will now be a friendly neighbor, the best friend and ally the EU could have, working hand in hand when our values and interests coincide.” Laws to live. “That is the historical purpose of this law.”
The approval of both houses of parliament is considered secure. Late on Wednesday night, the head of state, Queen Elizabeth II, is supposed to seal the trade pact with her signature. On Christmas Eve, the EU and Britain agreed on a trade deal.
