EU Commissioner Hogan sees 'massive' change after Brexit

Phil Hogan, the European trade commissioner, has warned that Europe’s ties with the UK will undergo a “massive” change when the post-Brexit transition period ends — regardless of whether both sides reach a trade deal by their year-end deadline.

Speaking at a European Parliament committee hearing, Mr Hogan urged EU governments to do more to make businesses aware of the changes they face at the end of the year.
