Brexit, EU threatens London with legal action



[ad_1]

The European Commission has given the UK until the end of the month to withdraw a bill that calls into question some commitments on Brexit, noting that the EU will not hesitate to “take legal action”.

The Brussels note follows an urgent meeting in London between British State Minister Michael Gove and European Commission Vice President Maros Sefcovic.

The British government defends the post-Brexit bill that the EU orders it to withdraw before the end of the month, under pain of judicial recourse, arguing that Parliament “is sovereign in matters of national law” and that “it will not act unconstitutionally “. to approve a text that revises some of the commitments made under the divorce agreement signed with the EU, in particular on the Irish protocol. In a note published after the meeting between Minister Michael Gove and European Commission Vice President Maros Sefcovic, London also claims the right of “precedence” of national legislation “on the Withdrawal Agreement”.
