Delaying departure date will only pile on uncertainty, consultant’s senior partner warns

The senior partner at Ridge has added his voice to those calling for the UK to leave the EU at the end of next month for the sake of business certainty.

Adrian O’Hickey said the UK needed to leave on the departure date of 29 March rather than face months more wrangling: “There is no benefit in delaying. There is a time pressure on it to try and get a compromise to get a solution that people will support. I can’t believe we won’t come up with a relationship [with the EU] that won’t allow the wheels to keep turning.”
