Brexit: Rishi Sunak rules out deal that relies on EU law alignment

The UK will not pursue a relationship with the EU that relies on EU laws, according to the Prime Minister.

Some in government want to move towards a Swiss-style deal with less trading and more migration.

Switzerland can trade easily with the bloc.

Control of migration was one of the benefits of leaving the EU.

He said that he voted for the UK to leave the European Union.

I know that the country will benefit from the decision to leave the European Union.

The UK now has proper control of its borders, he said.

The UK is free to pursue trade deals with the world's fastest-growing economies.

According to The Sunday Times, senior government figures were considering a deal.

Government ministers as well as the Prime Minister's Office denied the story.

I hope and believe that this isn't something that's being considered. We decided to leave the European Union in 2019.

The existing deal was negotiated by Lord David Frost.

Switzerland has access to the single market for most of its industries even though it is not a member of the EU. EU citizens can live and work in the country as long as they pay into the EU budget.

The Chancellor said last week that removing trade barriers with the EU would take time.

He said unfettered trade with countries all over the world is beneficial to growth.

He said that the UK was in a recession and that the economy was going to shrink further.

The economic forecast from the Office for Budget Responsibility was included in the chancellor's statement.

Is it possible that Rishi Sunak wants to reopen the Pandora's Box?

If you listen to the ministers on the radio, you won't hear anything from the prime minister.

You are able to comprehend why. The Conservative Party has been in turmoil recently. All the debates from 2016 onwards would be thrown back into the open if the question of Britain's exit from the European Union was reexamined.

They don't want to talk about it for a long time.

Even if the PM isn't going to revisit a Swiss-style arrangement, the debates are going to go on.

There are questions about trade with Europe. If there are other compromises with the EU, there is a chance of reducingfriction.

Even if the basics aren't back on the table, there's still a debate going on.

Home Office Minister Robert Jenrick was asked if leaving the EU had hurt UK trade.

He said that there will be challenges and disruption as a result of fundamentally altering our relationship with the EU, but that it was too soon to say whether or not that is going to be to the UK's long-term economic disadvantage.

The regulatory regime of the financial services, life sciences and the green economy are some of the things the government is planning to take advantage of.

The government did not want to make any fundamental changes to the UK's relationship with the EU, he said.

No 10 said that the deal wouldn't be fundamentally changed.

There will be no return to freedom of movement, no unnecessary payments to the EU, and nothing that limits the UK's freedom to do trade deals, according to the spokesman for the Prime Minister.
