Full speech is HERE. Interesting bits are :
I will never allow divisive nationalists to undermine the precious Union between the four nations of our United Kingdom.
Our laws will be made not in Brussels but in Westminster. The judges interpreting those laws will sit not in Luxembourg but in courts in this country. The authority of EU law in Britain will end.
Existing workers’ legal rights will continue to be guaranteed in law
We have voted to leave the European Union and become a fully-independent, sovereign country. We will do what independent, sovereign countries do. We will decide for ourselves how we control immigration.
We are not leaving the European Union only to give up control of immigration again. And we are not leaving only to return to the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice.
Mrs May talks of nationalism but isn't this what Brexit is all about? And as for the rest it seems she is determined to get a hard Brexit. There is no way we can get full control of our borders and laws without a complete separation.
Denis McShane (HERE) has an interesting article in The Independent about Mrs May' speech and the fact she has little foreign policy experience and sees the world through home counties conservatism lenses. He also noted the reference to not allowing the ECJ any jurisdiction over British courts and concludes we will not have any sort of membership of the single market.
