Sarah Wolff, Director of the Centre for European Research at QMUL, spoke to Radio Canada (starting at 18:18), in L'heure du Monde about Brexit. She comments upon the White Paper presented by Theresa May. This White Paper, combined to the recent resignations of Boris Johnson and David Davies, is a small victory of pro-European British conservatives. This move allows May her to strategically position herself at a moment where she is quite fragile domestically and when many other political turbulences could occur (new elections, motion of censure). Dr. Wolff comments upon the negative impact for the British financial services and the fact that Brussels will not allow any cherry-picking in the freedom of movement. May cannot offer a freedom of movement of goods and excludes the freedom of movement for people and EU citizens.
