THERESA'S FULL BREXIT: May rips UK OUT of single market and takes control of immigration
MASS immigration will stop under Theresa May's 12 point Brexit plan which outlines the Government's vision for Britain's new role in the world after severing ties with the European Union.
• Britain WILL leave the single market
• UK to take control of borders, but plans are afoot for a common travel area
• We will leave customs union and be an "outward looking, global trading nation"
• MPs will get a vote on the final Brexit deal
• Ultimate agreement must be in place by April 2019
• Pound soars in reaction to Theresa May's speech
• It's Britain's "national interest" the EU succeeds, Theresa May says
• May warns EU Britain won't accept a bad Brexit deal - it will just leave
• UK to leave the European Court of Justice
Theresa May has told the nation to expect much tighter controls on mass immigration, the rejection of the single market, the autonomy for Britain to make all its own laws and investment in infrastructure.
She said she wanted continued cooperation with the EU to tackle terrorism and international crime, she hopes to preserve the rights of British workers abroad and those of EU citizens currently in Britain and wants Britain to become a global hub for science and innovation.
The Prime Minister believes the Leave vote at the EU referendum is proof that the British public does not want to be in the single market and does not want to accept the EU's key principles such as freedom of movement.
She has vowed to seek "the greatest possible access to the single market" without pumping huge volumes of money into the EU's coffers, saying: "The days of Britain making vast contributions to the EU every year will end."
Mrs May's comments have instantly boosted the Pound, which started the day at near record lows.
It has now shot up by 2.6 per cent against the dollar and 1.6 per cent per cent against the Euro – Sterling rose as high as $1.2342, the biggest daily rise against the dollar since 2008.
"The one revelation that stood out though was the intention to put any deal before parliament, which in theory should tip the balance slightly further away from a hard Brexit even if May acknowledged that we will not be seeking access to the single market," Craig Erlam, senior market analyst at Oanda said in a note
The Prime Minister warned the European Union not to try and stick Britain with a bad deal, saying "no deal is better than a bad deal" and testing the EU's adherence to their own principles by saying such confrontational actions would not be "those of a friend".
She admitted that financial predictions in the run-up to Brexit were way off the mark and the reason Britain leaving the single market is now a possibility is because the country's finances are in a fantastic position after choosing to leave the EU.
Parliament will get to vote on the final Brexit deal and Mrs May wants an end to the entire Brexit process within the next two years.
