BREXIT: "Second referendum would take 12 months, would take us back to Square 1" - Barclay

UK's Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay has faced questions from MPs in the he Brexit select committee.

Stephen Timms asked how long Article 50 would have to be extended for, if a second referendum on the PM's deal were to take place.

Stephen Barclay said holding another referendum is an "undesirable option" which could "take us back to where we were before".

He adds that agreeing the legislation required for another referendum to take place could take twelve months.
