General election 2019: Boris Johnson unveils Tory manifesto - BBC News
Moment by moment reaction to the latest events on the election campaign trail.
In the least surprising promise in this manifesto, Boris Johnson makes a personal guarantee that he will "get Brexit done" and leave the EU in January if he wins a majority.

He says that will end the political divisions in the country - but that seems unlikely.

The Conservatives also promise to negotiate a trade deal with the EU next year, and have confirmed as a written manifesto pledge that they will not extend the post-Brexit transition period beyond December 2020.

That is an incredibly short amount of time to finalise a trade deal of any significant ambition, and it means the EU knows in advance what the UK’s negotiating deadlines are.

The Conservatives say the UK will be outside the EU single market, and any form of customs union.

There will be no political alignment with the EU, the manifesto says, and it promises that the UK will be in full control of its fishing waters.

But until we know the terms of a new relationship with the EU, business uncertainty will continue.

And it will be hard to argue that Brexit has really been done.
