"When it gets Royal Assent it will be a surrender Bill and that is why the prime minister has said that, especially once this Bill is in place, that we need to move forward as a country, we need to deliver on Brexit, and that's why unfortunately I think we are in the position where we need a general election," Javid said in a television interview.
