The Prime Minister
The British people gave us their view on our membership of the EU in June 2016, and we are delivering on it.
Marsha De Cordova (Battersea) (Lab)
For all the Prime Minister’s bluster, this political declaration underlines that 18 months of shambolic negotiations have produced embarrassingly little. Parliament looks set to be asked to vote and agree to a blind Brexit and to a deal that, despite what she claims, does not protect jobs, rights or the economy. When will she wake up to the reality that any deal she brings to the House cannot command the support of the House and will leave the country poorer?
The Prime Minister
This is the right deal for the UK. It delivers on the vote while protecting jobs, livelihoods, security and our Union.
