Bbc's laura kuenssberg ordered to 'get in a remainer taxi'

The BBC Political Editor asked her cab driver what he made of the Prime Minister's late-night speech outside Number 10 following her request to Brussels to grant a short delay to the

Brexit process. Doug, Ms Kuenssberg's cab driver, said he was expecting something more "substantial" from Theresa May and would have liked her to announce the UK was leaving

on a no deal basis.  He said: “Basically same old, nothing that she hasn’t said before. “When you hear that there’s going to be an announcement, you expect something a little bit more

substantial. “I would have liked her to have said that we were coming out with no deal. “Because what other option is there? They are prevaricating, it is a total mess the situation that

we’re in. “No one can agree, from whatever side they’re coming from they can’t agree. “I can’t see what a general election would do. “The last couple of months may have nothing to do with

Brexit but all this uncertainty needs to end. “I voted Leave and I’m even more of a leaver now than when I voted.” The BBC Editor was then asked by Brussels Correspondent Adam Fleming to

"get out" of the taxi.  Mr Fleming joked: “Laura you have to get out of that cab and go into a Remain-voting cab, just for BBC balance.” Last night, Mrs May said it was with

“personal regret” that she had to delay Brexit. She added: “So far Parliament has done everything possible to avoid making a choice. “All MPs have been willing to say is what they do not

want.” Mrs May told the public in a last-ditch attempt to save her deal: “You just want us to get on with it ad that is what I am determined to do.”
