Brexit - live updates: Theresa May accused of presiding over '20 wasted months', as PM vows to unite nation | |
(about 4 hours later) | |
Theresa May has defended her Brexit vision in a statement to MPs amid warnings that EU leaders will not accept her plans. | |
In a major speech at Mansion House in London last week, the Prime Minister told the bloc that refusing to include financial services in a trade deal after Brexit would “hurt” its own economies. | |
However European leaders suggested the plan would be difficult to accept because it would undermine the EU’s single market. | |
Earlier, Ms May attempted to shift focus away from Brexit when she announced plans to penalise property developers who do not build homes quickly enough. | |
The Prime Minister also used the speech to address rising levels of homelessness, adding: "In 2018, in one of the world’s largest, strongest economies, nobody should be without a roof over their head. | |
"This isn't just a British problem – in recent years homelessness has risen across Europe – but it is source of national shame nonetheless." | |
