Brexit is a national crisis which could lead to a major public inquiry, according to the UK's former chief ambassador to the European Union.
Rogers resigned in 2017 and has been a blunt critic of the UK government's approach to Brexit ever since. Asked whether he thought there would be a public inquiry into how the government managed the UK's departure from the EU, he said he was skeptical about how"healthy" such an inquiry would be for the country, but said that the scale of the crisis might lead to it."It's so raw at the moment and my worry as a citizen is that the state of the country is more divided and bitter than it was in 2016," Rogers told BI on Monday.
Since resigning in February 2017, Rogers has made a series of interventions about the performance of Theresa May's government in talks with the EU.
An “inquiry” 🤨 There was a bloody VOTE, Mr. Ambassador! Brexit
Let’s waste money money.......
