UK industry wants end to Brexit 'soap opera' in bid for certainty

London

UK business called for an end to the "soap opera" of Brexit and a return to the spirit of national unity last seen in World War II as it pushed for certainty on Britain's future relationship with the European Union.

Confederation of British Industry (CBI) president Paul Drechsler will appeal for a "single, clear strategy" in an address on Monday to the CBI's annual conference in London. He won't shy away from criticism of Prime Minister Theresa May, with a stringent rebuke for her "episodic approach" to negotiating Brexit, according to emailed excerpts of his planned remarks.
