LONDON - Britain on Thursday unveiled a tough negotiating mandate for talks with the European Union, underlining its desire for future economic and political independence that pits London on a collision course with Brussels.
Having accepted that by leaving the EU’s customs union and single market British businesses will encounter new “frictions” in trade with the bloc, Britain has made its stance clear - regained sovereignty will trump the economy. “It is a vision of a relationship based on friendly cooperation between sovereign equals, with both parties respecting one another’s legal autonomy and right to manage their own resources as they see fit.”
