PM to deliver Brexit speech next week

Downing Street has confirmed that Prime Minister Theresa May will make her speech on the government's Brexit plans next week, Tuesday 17 January.

The news comes as there has been growing pressure on the government to set out its negotiating stance on how Britain will leave the EU.

May said in December that she plans to trigger the two-year Article 50 process by April, but has refused to be drawn on the details of her plans.

May’s official spokeswoman said: "She will be making a speech on Tuesday, setting out more on our approach to Brexit, as part of preparing for the negotiations and in line with our approach for global Britain and continuing to be an outward-looking nation.”
