Quote:British Prime Minister Theresa May says the country’s lawmakers will have no say in the final Brexit deal.
The premier told MPs Tuesday that she is focusing on “delivering on the vote of the British people – which is that we will be leaving the European Union.â€
Tasked with transitioning Britain out of the European Union following a referendum in June, May refused three times to guarantee that the lawmakers would have a say in a final deal, backtracking on an apparent pledge she had made earlier.
Instead, the lawmakers could influence Britain’s new relationship with the EU by passing the Great Repeal Bill by 2019.
In a landmark referendum held on June 23, nearly 52 percent of British voters, amounting to more than 17 million citizens, opted to leave the EU, a decision that sent shock waves throughout the world.
