The International Trade Secretary, Liam Fox has said that allowing free movement of people after Britain leaves the European Union would not keep faith with the Brexit vote, underling divisions in the government over the issue.<br/><br/>Liam Fox told the Sunday Times that senior government ministers had not reached a consensus on retaining free movement of people for a transitional period, a proposal outlined by Finance Minister Philip Hammond on Friday. Hammond had said should be no immediate changes to immigration or trading rules when Britain leaves the EU in March 2019, and the status quo could endure until mid-2022. <br/><br/>Divisions between ministers over Brexit strategy have become more open after Prime Minister Theresa May lost her majority in an early election she called in June. Fox had previously said he backed a transition agreement to smooth Britain's exit from the trading bloc, but on Sunday he indicated that free movement should not continue. <br/><br/>Fox, who campaigned for Britain to leave the EU in last year's referendum, said any transitional deal needed to be jointly agreed by senior ministers. An ally of British foreign minister Boris Johnson also came out against Hammond's plan today.
