Britain's former Brexit Secretary David Davis on Thursday said that
members of Parliament will probably vote against Prime Minister Theresa
May's Brexit deal.
Davis, who quit the Cabinet earlier this year
over the Brexit plan proposed by May, said he believed the defeat in the
House of Commons would bring about an even better deal between his
country and the EU, Xinhua news agency reported.
Davis told local
media that Britain had hundreds of plans ready in case the country
leaves the EU without any agreed Brexit deal.
The former secretary believed that there could be "some hiccups", but Britain was "a big country" that can look after itself.
Britain is due to leave the EU on March 29, 2019.
Although
95 per cent of a Brexit deal is said to be agreed, Britain and the EU
have yet to agree on how to guarantee that there will be no return to a
visible border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in
the future.
