Prime Minister Theresa May says Britain will make clean break from EU

Prime Minister Theresa May on Tuesday described plans for the United Kingdom to make a clean break from the European Union rather than "a soft Brexit."


In a speech, May opposed a proposal for a "half-in, half-out" situation.

"We do not seek to hold on to bits of membership as we leave," she said.

May rejected calls for quasi-membership in the EU, but said Britain will continue to have strong ties with Europe and other nations worldwide.
