Pro-EU Tories Tell May They’re ‘Watching’ Her Moves on Brexit

Conservatives who support remaining in a customs union with the European Union are “watching and waiting” to see whether Prime Minister Theresa May’s strategy for post-Brexit trade is something they can support, Nicky Morgan, a leading pro-EU lawmaker said.

May on Friday said the U.K. will pull out of the EU’s customs union, and set out instead two alternatives for how cross-border trade might operate. The issue is particularly significant for Northern Ireland, which has the U.K.’s only land border with the bloc.
