<p>The Most Rev Justin Welby renewed calls for a cross-party commission to negotiate Britain&#8217;s departure from the European Union, as he said major decisions should be taken &#8220;off the political table&#8221;. The Archbishop, who sits in the House of Lords, told BBC Radio 4&#8217;s Today programme: &#8220;There are literally thousands of separate agreements to come to.</p>
<p>&#8220;If each one of those has to be argued as a point of confidence on the floor of the House of Commons, the chance of getting this done in what&#8217;s now roughly 18 months is infinitesimally small. &#8220;There has to be the political leadership that says we have major questions that are political, huge political decisions &#8211; the obvious one is the single market and customs union, but there are thousands of other decisions that can be made.</p>
<p>&#8220;Can the politicians not put at the front of their minds the needs of the United Kingdom to come out with a functional, working system for Brexit, and agree that certain things that, as it were, &#8216;off the political table&#8217; and will be decided separately in an expert commission, or commission of senior politicians led by someone that is trusted in the political world?&#8221;<br />
Downing Street dismissed the demand for an expert commission and insisted the Government was committed to the two-year Brexit timetable.<br />
The Prime Minister&#8217;s official spokesman said: &#8220;We are committed to, and are, consulting widely on the issues of Brexit but there are no plans in relation to a commission.&#8221;</p>
