Brexit news: Belinda de Lucy MEP warns the Government the Brexit Party will pressure it for no deal

The newly-elected Brexit Party MEP told the BBC Any questions? audience and listeners she believed the solution to the Brexit impasse will be her party's pressure on the Government to deliver on the promise the UK will leave the EU on October 31 with or without a deal. Ms de Lucy argued a no deal scenario remained the only offer left on the negotiating table following the humiliating triple rejection of Theresa May's deal.


She said: “No one is giving people a voice except for the Brexit Party right now and we are here to put pressure on the Government to say you’re not going to get away with fobbing ourselves. “You’re not going to get away with any more chaos, any more delay. “We’re watching you and we’re going to make sure you deliver a good and clean Brexit as soon as possible and we’re out on the 31st of October. “We are a democratic country, we need Brexit implemented.

“No deal is the only Brexit right now on the table and on offer and all the scaremongering and project fear that we’ve been drip-fed over the last five years has not put people off. “It may be that Parliament may not be keen on a no deal but the voters keep on voting to leave.” Ms de Lucy said she hoped her party will win their first MP in the Commons on Thursday when Peterborough residents will go to the polls. The by-election was triggered when disgraced former Labour MP Fiona Onasanya was ousted after lying about her speeding tickets.
