Chief Minister underlines how much is riding on the ongoing UK-EU treaty negotiations

The Chief Minister has underlined how much is riding on the ongoing UK-EU treaty negotiations and how significantly different the results could be.

In a message to the Conference on Brexit held by the University of Cadiz, Fabian Picardo said:

-

"We are at the point of something very great, very positive and historically important, or at the doors of an abyss almost as negative as that of the year 1969."

Mr Picardo did say that he's confident that with the goodwill seen from all sides an agreement to create common benefits will soon be arrived at, asking for "one last effort of intellectual and political generosity", for the good of everyone.
