Brussels threatens legal action and hints at halting trade talks as it calls on the UK government to back down.
The UK government has rejected EU demands to scrap draft legislation that Brussels deems a “clear breach” of the Brexit withdrawal deal.
”I made it perfectly clear to Maros Sefcovic that we would not be withdrawing this legislation”.
The EU’s demand – accompanied by a threat of legal action and a suggestion Brexit trade talks could be halted if the UK does not back down – followed emergency talks between senior EU and UK figures on Thursday.
Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove says the UK government has rejected EU demands to scrap draft legislation that Brussels deems a “clear breach” of the Brexit withdrawal deal.
