British Prime Minister Theresa May will target a clean divorce from the EU when she sets out her Brexit plans in a major speech this week, newspapers reported on Sunday.
In Tuesday's address, she will call for the United Kingdom to unite and get behind Brexit, pleading for an end to the "insults" and rancor between Leavers and Remainers, her Downing Street office said.
But newspapers said she would be laying out the path toward a "hard Brexit" - a strategy likely to infuriate embittered Remain voters even more.
