May more concerned to avoid no-deal, likely to add customs union to Brexit: Rees-Mogg

A eurosceptic lawmaker in British Prime Minister Theresa May's Conservative Party said on Monday he was worried that May could add a customs union to her Brexit deal with the European Union as a way to break the current parliamentary impasse.

"My concern is that the prime minister is more concerned to avoid a no-deal Brexit than anything else and therefore I am very concerned that she could decide to go for a customs union tacked on to her deal," Rees-Mogg said on LBC Radio. "But if that happens people like me will just continue campaigning to get us out of the customs union."
