1. SOUNDBITE (English) Theresa May, Conservative MP and British Home Secretary
"First, Brexit means Brexit. The campaign was fought, the vote was held, turnout was high and the public gave their verdict. There must be no attempts to remain inside the EU, no attempts to re-join it through the back door, and no second referendum. The country voted to leave the European Union and it is the duty of the government and parliament we do just that. Second, there should be no general election until 2020. There should be a normal Autumn statement, held in the normal way, at the normal time and no emergency budget. And there should be no decision to invoke article 50 until the British negotiating strategy is agreed and clear which means article 50 should not be invoked before the end of this year. Third, we should make clear that for the foreseeable future there is absolutely no change in Britain's trading relationships with the EU or other markets. And until a new legal agreement is reached with the EU, which will not happen for some time, the legal status of British nationals living or working in Europe will not change and neither will the status of the EU nationals in Britain."
"Brexit means Brexit", British Home Secretary Theresa May said on Thursday as she launched her campaign for the Conservative party leadership.
May said there should be no attempts "to remain inside the EU, no attempts to rejoin it through the back door, and no second referendum".
She said there should be no general election until 2020 and no emergency budget.
The Home Secretary also said there should be no decision to invoke article 50 before the end of this year and until Britain's negotiating terms are clear.
