CBI appeals to Brexit negotiators to stop hostile rhetoric

London

UK and European businesses want Brexit politician negotiators to stop unseemly grandstanding and concentrate on the economy, trade and unemployment.

The Confederation of British Industry (CBI), which backed "remain" ahead of the referendum, stated that the negotiators on both sides should prioritise jobs and economic growth. They should avoid becoming bogged down in hostile rhetoric at the start of the Brexit talks, the CBI stresses.
