Brexit is a 'fix' with EU certain to win negotiations, ex-foreign secretary Boris Johnson warns

 

Boris Johnson has claimed Brexit negotiations are rigged, with "the inevitable outcome of a victory for the EU".

In what many in Westminster speculate as the beginning of a plot to try and oust the prime minister, the former foreign secretary insisted the UK is "lying flat on the canvas" in withdrawal talks.

He claims the UK has already issued a message of surrender over Chequers proposals to align UK standards on goods to the EU, saying Britain has "gone into battle with the white flag fluttering over our leading tank".
