UK PM Boris Johnson 'respectfully' marks Brexit Day, calling the divorce from the EU a 'dawn of a new era'
Johnson has until the end of the year to negotiate a new trade and future relationship deal with the bloc – something that the EU has repeatedly warned will not be easy.
"This is the dawn of a new era in which we no longer accept that your life chances - your family's life chances - should depend on which part of the country you grow up in. But he also inherits a country where arguments about whether to stay in or leave the EU have divided towns, villages, friends and families for more than three years, and where many people increasingly distrust politicians.
European Union chiefs vowed on Friday to find new ways of working together with Britain "as allies, partners and friends".
