BORIS JOHNSON has a post-Brexit plan which could deliver a multi-billion pound boost to the economy and create tens of thousands of jobs, unearthed reports claim.
The Conservative Party secured a crushing victory in this month’s general election, capturing 364 of the 650 seats in the House of Commons. It was one of the biggest shifts in British political allegiances for decades and it marked a personal victory for Mr Johnson. The win means Britain will almost certainly leave the EU in January 2020, as, just like the Prime Minister said, “no one can now refute” his “stonking mandate” to deliver Brexit.
While critics argue that the former mayor of London will not be able to turn around Britain’s economy after the country leaves the bloc, unearthed reports reveal Mr Johnson will be able to do excatly that.
After Brexit, the Prime Minister is planning to create duty-free ports, especially in northern England, which could potentially turn the whole of Britain into a “Singapore-on-Thames”.
The idea of ‘Singapore-on-Thames’ was first introduced a couple of years ago by Philip Hammond, the former Chancellor of the Exchequer, as a means of encouraging the EU to strike a friendly Brexit deal with the UK.
