Queen Elizabeth has given formal approval to Brexit legislation
Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II on Thursday gave formal approval for Theresa May’s government to trigger exit talks with the European Union, reports Euronews.
The Monarch’s ‘Royal Assent’ follows parliament’s final approval of legislation, late on Monday.
It means that May can invoke Article 50 of the EU’s Lisbon Treaty at any time, although her spokesman has hinted that any such decision is likely to come towards the end of March rather than in the coming days.
