'I see the Withdrawal Agreement as much worse than Remain, frankly,' Mr Habib told Sophy Ridge on Sky. But he did not confirm whether his comments represented the official position of the Brexit Party. There are only 275 Brexit Party candidates standing despite Nigel Farage initially suggesting that his party would target every seat in Britain.
