The British government said it has no plans to move to a Swiss-style relationship with the European Union after some of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s eurosceptic lawmakers warned him against pursuing a closer alignment with the trading bloc. The Sunday Times reported that Sunak’s government would look to pursue frictionless trade with the EU, which Britain left in January 2020. The newspaper said a potential deal could be modelled on Switzerland’s EU relationship but that this would not involve a return to freedom of movement.
