No-deal Brexit

A no-deal Brexit (also clean break Brexit) was the potential withdrawal of the UK from the European Union (EU) without a withdrawal agreement. Under article 50 of the Maastricht Treaty, the Treaties of the European Union would have ceased to apply once a withdrawal agreement was ratified or if the two years had passed since a member state had indicated its will to leave the European Union. The two-year period could have been extended by unanimous consent from all member states, including the member state that was wishing to leave the European Union.
