LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minster Boris Johnson said on Wednesday he was confident that the European Union would "see sense" and continue to collaborate in the same way on data-sharing after the end of this year.

"That depends on the outcome of our negotiations, but I am absolutely confident that our friends and partners will see sense in the great mutual benefit in continuing to collaborate in exactly the way that we do," Johnson told parliament.
