May warns UK will 'never' allow EU to 'undermine' its integrity

LONDON: Prime Minister Theresa May on Wednesday warned that Britain would "never" allow the EU to "undermine" its constitutional integrity, as she rejected a draft divorce treaty unveiled by the bloc's chief negotiator Michel Barnier.

"The draft legal text will, if implemented, undermine the UK common market and threaten the constitutional integrity of the UK by creating a customs and regulatory border down the Irish Sea and no UK prime minister could ever agree to it," May told the House of Commons.
