UK PM candidate Leadsom: Brexit on Oct. 31 is my ‘hard red line’

Published Updated

"Leaving the EU on the 31st of October is, for me, a hard red line," Leadsom said as she launched her campaign.

"The next prime minister must have a clear plan to a managed exit by the end of October."

Leadsom said she would ramp up preparations for Brexit and that her "managed exit" would bring minimal disruption.
