		</div><p>The pound has soared as British Prime Minister Theresa May outlined her vision for how Britain should divorce from the European Union.</p>
<p>Sterling rose almost 2% against the US dollar, reaching 1.227, as Mrs May said the final Brexit deal with the EU will be put to a vote of both Houses of Parliament, while stressing the need for Britain to strike strong global trading ties.</p>
<p>The pound rose as high as 1.145 versus the euro.</p>
<p>Speaking at Lancaster House, Mrs May said: &#8220;This Government has a plan for Britain &#8211; one that gets us the right deal abroad but also ensures we get a better deal for ordinary working people at home.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mrs May added that Britain will not hold on to membership of the European single market, but would aim to achieve the &#8220;greatest possible access to it&#8221; through a &#8220;bold new free trade agreement&#8221;.</p>
<p>She said Britain would aim to secure tariff-free trade that would be as &#8220;frictionless as possible&#8221;.</p>
<p>Focusing on the financial services sector, Mrs May said she would do everything she could to avoid a &#8220;disruptive cliff edge&#8221; by providing a phased transition for a &#8220;smooth and orderly Brexit&#8221;.</p>
<p>On the Customs Union, she said she wanted to remain part of a customs agreement with the remaining 27 EU states, but said she had an &#8220;open mind&#8221; over whether this would be through associate membership of the Customs Union or through some other arrangement.</p>
