UK bosses want clarity on Brexit

After the maelstrom of UK prime minister Theresa May’s election crisis and a struggle in government over the shape of Brexit, business chiefs have a request for the UK: Give clarity on how the EU divorce might look.

Since Ms May nearly lost her job in a botched June 8 election gamble, ministers have sought to strike a more inclusive tone, even inviting in some chief executives to a 17th century manor house to discuss Brexit over a buffet lunch.

However, as the March 2019 exit date approaches, six major British business chiefs told Reuters they still do not have the answers about post- Brexit immigration, trade and regulation they need to plan and make coherent investment decisions.
