'Early election could kill Brexit', says health secretary Matt Hancock

An early general election could mean 'killing Brexit altogether', according to health secretary Matt Hancock. The cabinet minister, speaking amid uncertainty surrounding Theresa May's future in Number 10, said such a vote should not be called until Britain has left the EU. Mr Hancock, a Remainer during the 2016 campaign, said the Tories need to 'take responsibility for delivering on the referendum result'.
