MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 14th September, 2018) UK Shadow Foreign Secretary Emily Thornberry of the Labour party said Friday that the party would vote against the Brexit deal when it would be proposed by the Conservative government.
"Even if they come back in October, November, and they say, 'this flimsy bit of paper is what you're going to have to agree to, otherwise there'll be no deal'. We're not going to agree to either of those," Thornberry told the Financial Times newspaper.
She suggested that UK Prime Minister Theresa May would not be able to stay in the office following the defeat of the vote on the deal.
"They are not capable of governing�.�.�.�We're either going to have a general election in the autumn or we're going to have it in the spring," the shadow foreign secretary said.
The Brexit deal is expected to be finalized by October-November with the United Kingdom leaving the block on March 29.
