Pro-Brexit UK lawmaker calls down on PM May's 'bad agreement'

A Brexit-supporting British lawmaker said a "lot of people" in parliament still remained opposed to Prime Minister Theresa May's European Union withdrawal deal, with hostility going beyond opposition to the so-called Irish backstop.

"This is a very bad agreement," John Redwood told BBC radio. "Quite a number share my overall concerns that we don't need this kind of binding treaty. It's a lot of people and it goes far wider than the ERG group who have been particularly keen to have the right kind of Brexit," he added.
