Britain's May to call for national unity in major Brexit speech
London
BRITISH Prime Minister Theresa May will use a major speech on Brexit this week to call on Britons to reject the acrimony of last year's referendum and unite around the vision of a Britain more open to the world, her office said on Sunday.
Mrs May intends to kick off the formal process of negotiating the terms of Britain's exit from the European Union by the end of March, but has given little away about what deal she will be seeking, frustrating some investors, businesses and lawmakers.
