A new chapter will open in UK's history, says Boris Johnson as MPs’ decide on Brexit trade deal
Boris Johnson says the United Kingdom will open a new chapter in the nation's history as MPs plan to decide on his Brexit deal.
On Wednesday, the British Parliament will be recalled to give its decision on the trade accord reached over four years after the In/Out vote in 2016.
The EU (Future Relationship) Bill is required to clear the Commons with the Conservatives and Labor MPs set to support it, even though the SNP, the SDLP, the DUP, Alliance, Plaid Cymru, and the Liberal Democrats have all demonstrated they won't vote in favor of it.
However, Johnson has asserted that the deal implies the UK will be "the closest companion and partner the EU could have" while satisfying the sovereign desire of the British public to live under their own legislation.
During the Commons speech, he will address MPs about the main reason for the Bill is to achieve something which the British public consistently knew in their souls that it could be achieved, yet which we were told was unthinkable.
"We could trade and work together with our European neighbors on the terms of kinship and goodwill while holding sovereign control of our laws and our nation's destination."
The House of Commons will begin at around 9.30 am, with a vote that's awaited in the early afternoon. Later, the legislation will debate on it in the House of Lords, and after the vote, it will finally require the Royal Assent.
The endorsement is additionally expected to be given to empower virtual support for discussions and proceedings on the Memorandum.
The Welsh Senedd, the Scottish Parliament, and the Stormont Executive in Northern Ireland will likewise meet on Wednesday to consider the new resolution. Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has urged MSPs not to agree to the Bill, with Scottish Labor likewise affirming they will cast a ballot against the agreement in contrast to the United Kingdom party at Westminster.

Labour leader Keir Starmer has asked his MPs to back the deal, regardless of worries that it will fail to secure important financial sectors.
He has contended that the option of ending the Brexit transition period on December 31 without a trade deal would be far worse for our economy.
On Monday, EU representatives gave a provisional endorsement for Britain's post-Brexit trade accord to be actualized from January 1.
The move makes for the deal which takes into consideration the continued tax-free trade with the EU single market to produce results when the current Brexit transition period lapses on 31 Dec.
