On 29 March Theresa May will at last notify President Tusk of her country’s intention to withdraw from the European Union.

Duff recommends the setting-up of a special Joint Transition Authority - a unique body, answerable to both parties - in order to oversee over a longer period the full completion of the Brexit process and the preparation of the next phase of Britain’s European partnership. Brexit will happen; negotiations will be challenging; but that does not mean both sides should make the parting more difficult than it already is.
