LONDON \u2014 Theresa Mays new Brexit plan will leave the U.K. in \u201cmiserable, permanent limbo\u201d and should be torn up, Boris Johnson said today, while stopping short of calling for the prime minister to go.<\/p>\n

Johnson, the Leave campaign figurehead who quit as foreign secretary last week, used a resignation statement in the House of Commons to savage Mays new Brexit strategy<\/a>, as agreed by the Cabinet at her Chequers country residence two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

He said the plan, which includes an agreement to follow \u201ca common rule book\u201d with the EU on regulations and standards governing the goods trade, is \u201cin important ways \u2026 Brexit in name only\u201d and tantamount to the U.K. \u201cvolunteering for economic vassalage.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a speech that sounded like a veiled leadership pitch, he added it is \u201cnot too late to save Brexit\u201d and appealed to the government to consider \u201ctechnological solutions\u201d to avoid a hard border between Ireland and Northern Ireland, and to step up preparations for a no-deal Brexit.<\/p>\n

In an apparent message to Brexiteers in the Cabinet who have backed Mays deal, he said: \u201cWe will not get another chance to get it right. And it is absolute nonsense to imagine, as I fear some of my colleagues do, that we can somehow afford to make a botched treaty now and then break and reset the bone later on.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, he did not call for May to quit, instead urging her to return to her Brexit policy as outlined in the January 2017 Lancaster House speech<\/a>, with a focus on the U.K. having an independent trade and regulatory policy, enabling it to strike major free-trade deals with non-EU countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat is the prize that is still attainable,\u201d he said. \u201cThere is time. And if the prime minister can fix that vision once again before us then I believe she can deliver a great Brexit for Britain.\u201d<\/p>\n
