«Breaking News» Break this Brexit deadlock, says Rudd

AMBER Rudd steps forward today as the Tories’ Brexit ‘peacemaker’.

The Work and Pensions Secretary calls for a ceasefire among warring MPs to prevent the UK economy ‘crashing on the rocks’ by leaving the EU without a deal.

She said it is time to make Parliament a ‘safe space’ to discuss how Britain can cut its ties with Brussels.

Miss Rudd stressed that the Conservatives must be ready to join forces in ‘coalition’ with moderate Labour MPs to break the Brexit deadlock.

And in a move which could anger Downing Street, she questioned whether Theresa May will ever get Tory MPs to back her Brexit deal despite returning to Brussels this week for fresh talks.

Work and Pensions Secretary Amber Rudd has called for colleagues to heal Brexit wounds

In an article for the Daily Mail today, Miss Rudd said it was vital for Conservative MPs to ‘heal’ Brexit wounds and talk to Labour colleagues prepared to find another solution.

The cabinet minister, who campaigned for Remain in the referendum, did not spell out her favoured Brexit alternative.

She backs Mrs May’s deal but has also expressed sympathy for the so-called ‘Norway’ option, under which the UK would stay in the customs union and EU single market but have less power to curb immigration.

Miss Rudd’s call for Parliament to be made ‘safe’ follows angry clashes between Tory MPs this week. Conservative Andrew Bridgen, a member of the pro-Brexit European Research Group (ERG), stormed out of a TV interview with party deputy chairman James Cleverly.

One minister said he would like to ‘punch the ERG in the face’. Another MP called Chancellor Philip Hammond a ‘t***’ for denouncing Brexit ‘extremists’ ahead of the confidence vote on Wednesday.

In her article, Miss Rudd says Brexit is ‘stuck’ and unless feuding MPs stop ‘digging in’, Britain is heading for a no deal outcome which would be a disaster for the car industry, airlines, hauliers and others. 

Appearing to pour cold water on Mrs May’s hopes of winning over Tory rebels, she writes: ‘Many of my [Conservative] colleagues aren’t yet persuaded. It’s possible enough will be – but they might not.’

The only hope is to ‘try something different – engage with others and forge a consensus with a practical, sensible and healing approach’, she said.

She said that means an end to ‘outrage and accusations’, adding: ‘It is not weak to create a safe environment for Parliament to find a solution – it is strong.’

Miss Rudd said she expects to be accused of ‘treachery’ by Brexiteers but will not be deterred in her plea to ‘ignore siren voices calling us to the rocks of no deal’.

The UK can prosper after Brexit – but only with a ‘coalition’ of MPs who want it to succeed and who ‘argue a little less and compromise a little more’, she warns.

Her intervention comes amid reports that Miss Rudd and fellow ‘soft Brexit’ cabinet ministers are pushing for a series of Commons votes on alternative plans such as no-deal and Norway outcomes.

The reported aim of the so-called ‘indicative’ – and non binding – votes is to show that none commands a Commons majority, thereby helping to persuade sceptical MPs that Mrs May’s proposal is the only practical one.

However, some Tory Brexiteers maintain it is a ‘back door’ ploy to pave the way for a second referendum, as favoured by some Remain supporters.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
