The Political Agenda – Sarah Olney MP (Brexit Special)

On the 30th December 2020, parliament was recalled to vote through the Brexit trade deal that signalled the end of the transition period of the UK leaving the EU.

The vote symbolised the closing of a key chapter in Brexit’s history, four long and divisive years after the 2016 referendum.

One year on, Chris Lomas spoke to Sarah Olney for The Political Agenda, about her surreal conversation with Theresa May on the day of the vote, the current issues the UK faces post-Brexit, and why Boris Johnson could have been a remainer.
