LONDON (Reuters) - British
Prime Minister Theresa May has asked officials to keep
working on proposals for future customs arrangements
with the European Union after Brexit as a priority,
after deep divisions over her plans have broken into the
open. |

Her spokesman told reporters May still had "full confidence" in
her foreign minister, Boris Johnson, after he described what is
seen as her preferred plan for a customs partnership as "crazy".
The spokesman said that all her ministers had previously signed
up to the two proposals sent to the EU. The bloc has dismissed
both.
