Liam Fox casts doubt on meeting 2019 Brexit deal deadline

International Trade Secretary Liam Fox has told Sky News that he "doesn't have a problem" with a Brexit implementation period.Dr Fox, who has previously suggested a transition deal should last months and not years, said an implementation period of "a couple of years" might be "common sense".This is because, according to Dr Fox, there was now "some uncertainty" as to whether Brexit Secretary David Davis will be able to conclude a trade deal with the EU by March 2019.
