Seize Brexit to transform UK: May

Describing the historic Brexit vote as a “once-in-a-generation chance” to transform the country for good, PM Theresa May on Wednesday said her government would trigger the process of leaving the EU bloc by the end of March and appealed to Britons to “seize the day”. 

Unveiling her vision for Britain at the Conservative Party’s annual conference here in central England, less than three months after she became prime minister, May pledged to build a “stronger and brighter future”.

She said her vision was of a country “where everyone plays by the same rules and where every single person, regardless of their background or that of their parents, is given the chance to be all they want to be”. She urged people 

whichever way they had voted in the June 23 referendum to leave the 28-nation trading bloc “to come with me as we rise to meet this moment, come with me and together let’s seize the day”.
