(FILES) In this file photo taken on December 10, 2019 Britain's Prime Minister and Conservative party leader Boris Johnson drives a Union flag-themed JCB, with the words "Get Brexit Done" inside the digger bucket, through a fake wall emblazoned with the word "GRIDLOCK", during a general election campaign event at JCB construction company in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, on December 10, 2019. - Severing a truculent partnership stretching back five decades, Britain finally went its own way late Thursday four-and-a-half years after its shock referendum verdict in favour of divorcing the EU. Brexit became reality as Big Ben struck 11:00 pm (2300 GMT) in central London, just as most of the European mainland ushered in 2021 at midnight. (Photo by Ben STANSALL / various sources / AFP)
