Brexit drama in the UK as Boris Johnson pushes bill to override EU exit deal
(Worthy News) – More than four years since Brits voted to leave the European Union, the United Kingdom is once again engulfed in another Brexit crisis — with a dramatic move by Prime Minister Boris Johnson to potentially rewrite parts of the initial divorce deal, sparking outrage and threats of legal action from E.U. leaders.
The U.K. formally left the bloc in January, having thrashed out a Withdrawal Agreement with the E.U. in 2019. That technical departure marked the beginning of a transition period as the two sides worked out a free trade agreement for once that transition expired at the end of 2020.
But as those negotiations have stalled, Johnson’s government has become increasingly frustrated by what it sees as an intransigence from the E.U. and last week took the dramatic step of introducing the Internal Market Bill — which would allow ministers to rewrite parts of the Withdrawal Agreement that apply to Northern Ireland.
