UK Prime Minister promised to scrap EU withdrawal deal If no trade pact reached – Lawmaker

Moscow, Sep 8 (Sputnik) - UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson promised to anti-EU lawmakers that the withdrawal deal with the bloc could be repealed if no pact was reached on free trade, a senior pro-Brexit Tory legislator said Tuesday.
Talks on a future UK-EU trade relationship entered the last round on Tuesday, with Johnson threatening to walk out if no deal were reached by mid-October. The transition period expires in December.
Bernard Jenkin, the chair of the House of Commons Liaison Committee and head of a small panel of euroskeptic Conservatives called the European Research Group, wrote in an article for the Diplomat magazine that they voted for the withdrawal deal in January because they were told it could be ditched.
