European Union (Withdrawal) Act

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was accused by European Union officials on Sept. 18 of failing to negotiate seriously and branded the "father of lies" by a lawyer in the U.K. Supreme Court, as his plan to leave the EU in just over six weeks faced hurdles on both sides of the Channel.

Today The British Supreme Court is starting to consider whether Prime Minister Boris Johnson's disputed decision to suspend parliament's work for more than a month was legitimately. His opponents considered this decision as an attempt to impose Brexit without an agreement, BTA reported.

Boris Johnson was booed by protesters and berated by Luxembourg's leader on a visit to the tiny nation Sept. 16 for his first face-to-face talks with the European Union chief about securing an elusive Brexit deal.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has denied he lied to Queen Elizabeth about the reasons for seeking a five-week suspension of parliament, BTA reported.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Sept. 10 he would not request an extension to Brexit, hours after a law came into force demanding that he delay Britain's departure from the European Union until 2020 unless he can strike a divorce deal.

A senior minister who quit British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Cabinet said on Sept. 8 that the government is making little or no effort to secure a Brexit agreement with the European Union, despite Johnson's insistence that he wants a deal.

London will not stop the free movement of people immediately after Brexit. EU citizens will be able to stay on the Island for up to 3 years with temporary residence status. Applying for temporary status will be done through a simple online procedure.

The British prime minister Boris Johnson believes Brexit should happen without further delay. Boris Johnson urged members of the British Parliament not to vote for a new postponement, which he described as "pointless."

U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson acknowledged on Aug. 25 that the prospect of a Brexit deal was "touch and go," as other European Union capitals grasp the problems Britain has with the withdrawal agreement.

U.S. President Donald Trump promised a big trade deal for post-Brexit Britain to Boris Johnson on Aug. 25 and praised the new prime minister as the right man to take Britain out of the European Union.
