Britain will not be EU ‘client state’ – UK Brexit envoy

LONDON: Britain will not become “a client state” under the terms of any post-Brexit trade deal struck with the European Union (EU), the United Kingdom’s chief negotiator David Frost insisted late on Saturday.

Ahead of an eighth and final round of scheduled talks with the EU next week, Frost said Britain was “not going to compromise on the fundamentals of having control over our own laws.”
