Despite being promised that signing an EU trade deal after Brexit “would be the easiest in history”, the reality is that the Withdrawal Agreement!which the Government is currently struggling to secure only covers our financial settlement for Brexit, Citizens Rights and the Northern Ireland border.
I am extremely concerned that we are therefore walking into a “blind” Brexit with no real idea about our future trading relationship with the EU, on which so many businesses and jobs depend. I pressed the Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab on this issue and will hold him to account for his commitments.
