Quote:Britain could be handed an accelerated path to re-join the European Union if it decides to reapply for membership after it has left the bloc, the European Parliament’s chief Brexit negotiator has claimed.
Guy Verhofstadt, a former Belgian prime minister and arch European federalist, said that future British governments would have a way back into Europe if they decided to reverse course after Brexit, possibly even on a fastrack.
“That is always possible,” he said in an interview in the US during the visit of Theresa May, “They can always reintroduce a request for membership of the European Union.”
"Certainly, we have enough experience to make it a little bit a faster process than what is normal,” he added.
