Boris Johnson plans not to negotiate Brexit without waiting, said minister | Policy

Boris Johnson "prepares the turbo" to leave the EU without agreement on October 31, the number one priority of his government, according to several ministers.

The new prime minister has sent cabinet ministers for newspaper and broadcaster interviews this weekend as part of an advertising blitz on the prospect of a Brexit without agreement.

Their message is that the UK will not accept any agreement unless EU leaders agree to replace Irish support.

Michael Gove, the new cabinet minister in charge of preparations for a "no deal", said the government "presumed" that Britain would leave without a deal on Oct. 31 and that it was a "very real prospect" because European leaders far not changed in the opinion on the removal of the backstop.

He stated in the Sunday Times that an agreement might not be reached with Brussels by then, but that there was a "new clarity in the mission, we will come out of the future." 39: EU 31st October, no if, no, no more delay ".

In Theresa May's withdrawal agreement, he said: "You can not just warm up the dish that was sent back and hope it will make it more enjoyable."

At the same time, Saeed Javid, the new Chancellor, told the Sunday Telegraph that there would be "significant additional funding" this week for Britain to be "ready to leave" the EU on October 31, with or without agreement.

He added that the additional spending would include funding for one of the country's "biggest information campaigns" to ensure that individuals and businesses are ready to withdraw from the negotiations.

Javid added that he planned to fund 500 new officers of the Border Force and to examine the new infrastructure around the country's ports in order to reduce congestion and ensure the transit of goods.

And Priti Patel, the new Secretary of State for the Interior, told Sunday at the Mail that she would stop the "automatic entry fee of EU citizens, with or without without work ", in order to give" kind of preference to brilliant scientists, academics and highly qualified ". workers we want to see more of. "

Gove and Javid are part of the new "cabinet of war" composed of six key ministers who will organize the Brexit before October 31 "by all necessary means".

Rishi Sunak, the new chief secretary of the Treasury, then gave an interview to Sky News, saying the government was preparing "turbo" without agreement.

"Of course, we would prefer [leave] with a new agreement, the one that removes this anti-democratic system, "he said. "We are ready to start negotiations with a spirit of friendship and determination, but if the EU does not want to do it, that's right, we're very willing to do that. We are preparing the turbo for no agreement. It is now the number one priority of the government. "

Johnson continues his preparations despite the inter-party MPs who have pledged to join forces to avoid any agreement.

Former Conservative chancellor Philip Hammond had a private meeting with UK trade union spokesman Keir Starmer shortly before Johnson's entry into Downing Street to propose multi-party measures to prevent the new Prime Minister from accepting a Brexit without agreement.

However, Johnson's new senior advisor, Dominic Cummings, has put the government on the warpath to face opponents of Parliament and get out on October 31 with or without agreement. He told a meeting of the Prime Minister's advisers that he had been instructed to present Brexit "by all means necessary".

More and more speculation suggests that this could include an election if Parliament blocks the Brexit's plans for the new government, even though Johnson has ruled it out.

Labor Party leader Jeremy Corbyn said his party was ready for an election, telling Sky that he was "not at all angry" by confronting Johnson.

According to polls, conservatives were boosted by a "rebound of Boris" after the election of their new leader.

Since Johnson became prime minister, the Conservatives have gained 10 points to settle at 30%, according to a new poll by Opinium for The Observer. Poll shows Conservatives benefit from reduced Brexit party support.

Despite being pushed to second place, Labor also increased by three points, to 28%, at the expense of the Green Party.
