Liberal Democrats seek a two-year extension to the transition period

As Liberal Democrats, we are proud to have led the fight against Brexit. We must not let Boris Johnson's Brexit wreck the economy as we fight COVID-19.

To crash out of the Brexit transition period when our NHS & economy are already stretched due to COVID-19, would be unthinkable. It's irresponsible, and it would be a huge betrayal of our hardworking NHS and care staff.

Extending the Brexit transition period has to be a priority.

Our Bill would help ensure a two-year extension in order to work with our European partners and prevent a catastrophic No Deal Brexit after the COVID-19 crisis.

We need your help to push Boris Johnson.

Will you share our plan to extend the Brexit transition period?

Best wishes,

Alistair Carmichael
Liberal Democrats

P.S. Our health and care workers are heroes. They deserve better than the government risking their future and the future of the NHS with their Brexit plans. Back our plan to support frontline workers if you think the government must do more. Add your name here: https://www.libdems.org.uk/frontline
