Former Brexit Party MEP Ben Habib argued that the UK was essentially stuck in its attempt to leave the European Union. During an interview with Express.co.uk, Habib insisted that the UK was indefinitely bound to the withdrawal agreement that EU leaders and Boris Johnson had signed. He added that a no-deal Brexit would allow the UK to cleanly secede from the European Union.
However, he said, this would not be possible without breaking the terms of the withdrawal agreement and going through the Internal Market Law.
Habib said: “There are two things to say, the first is that now we cannot have a no-deal without Boris Johnson denouncing or repudiating the withdrawal agreement.
“This is because that agreement has long-term binding effects on the UK.
“We have so many descriptions that we just can’t escape.”

Habib then argued why he believed the initially agreed withdrawal deal was bad for Britain.
He continued: “There is nothing good in the withdrawal agreement and its associated political statement, nothing good from a UK perspective.
“I’m sure readers of the Daily Express know that it includes something called the Northern Ireland protocol that essentially puts a border in the Irish Sea, commits Northern Ireland to EU state aid law, this means that to As EU state aid laws change, Northern Ireland has to adopt them.
“Because Northern Ireland is part of the UK, it will have a setback in the rest of the UK.”
“The internal market bill has collapsed in many respects, as the prime minister could only pass it in the House of Commons.
“It has now passed through the House of Lords and faced a huge wave of criticism.”
The pressure has continued to mount for the UK and the EU as no agreement has yet been reached on the future relationship between the couple.
Following concerns about the resignation of prominent Brexit supporter Dominic Cummings, concerns have been raised that Boris Johnson could be about to give in to the EU and its Brexit demands.
