UK Can Change Mind After Article 50 is Triggered

Britain could still change its mind about Brexit after triggering its formal divorce talks with the European Union, the man who drafted Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty told the BBC.

Prime Minister Theresa May has said she will invoke Article 50 by the end of March, kicking off two years of divorce negotiations.

“You can change your mind while the process is going on,” John Kerr, a former British ambassador to the EU who drafted Article 50, told BBC TV.
