Brexit is 'much better for Britain' than Europe

Britain’s impending exit from the EU will be a “much better day for Britain than it is for Europe” according to Sky News host Chris Kenny.

Three-and-a-half years since the Brexit referendum, and after two general elections fought substantially over the issue, the European Parliament overwhelmingly ratified the withdrawal agreement 621 votes to 49.

The vote means Britain will leave the EU on Saturday, Australia time.

Nigel Farage - who has become one of the standard bearers of the Brexit debate and is a member of the European Parliament - celebrated the ratification of the agreement with what Mr Kenny described as a “touch of British eccentricity, more than a bit of disdain for the European project”.

“Here is Farage and his colleagues, and the British nation, finally getting their way and leaving Brussels”.
