UK PM Sunak's spokesperson: Brexit has not failed

Britain's departure from the European Union has not been a failure, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's spokesperson said on Tuesday, rebuffing criticism from prominent eurosceptic politician Nigel Farage of how Brexit had been carried out.

Asked if Sunak agreed with comments by Farage that Brexit had failed because politicians had mismanaged the exit from the EU, Sunak's spokesperson said: "No. The prime minister has talked about the benefits of Brexit on a number of occasions."
