«Breaking News» PM to push ahead with a £2billion plan to prepare the UK for the possibility no-deal Brexit

Theresa May will today push ahead with a £2billion plan to prepare the UK for the possibility of leaving the EU without a deal.

In the Commons yesterday, Mrs May gave her strongest warning yet about the potential impact of a no-deal Brexit, saying it would ‘risk the jobs, services and security of the people we serve’.

But she said that, with the fate of her deal in the balance, the Government had a duty to step up preparations for the possibility of a no-deal Brexit.

The move came as it emerged Brussels is preparing a ‘basic’ offer to keep flights in the air and money flowing for up to nine months in the event of a no-deal Brexit.

Cabinet ministers will gather in Downing Street this morning for their last meeting of the year in a bid to agree the no-deal plans. 

But, in an extraordinary breakdown in Cabinet discipline, ministers were openly speculating yesterday over how to proceed on Brexit if Mrs May’s deal fails.

Business Secretary Greg Clark and Work and Pensions Secretary Amber Rudd yesterday went public with demands for the PM to hold a series of ‘indicative votes’ on alternatives - including no-deal, a Norway-style soft Brexit and a second referendum.

The idea would allow MPs to vote on a series of Brexit options to ‘test the will of parliament’ but the results would be non-binding. 

It is backed by a string of ministers, including Chancellor Philip Hammond, Justice Secretary David Gauke and Scottish Secretary David Mundell.

Brexit-backing International Trade Secretary Liam Fox and International Development Secretary Penny Mordaunt will urge Mrs May today to hold a free vote on her deal in the hope of peeling off a significant number of Labour MPs to cancel out the Eurosceptic Tories committed to voting it down. 

Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson, Home Secretary Sajid Javid and Treasury Chief Secretary Liz Truss are pushing Mrs May to step up talks with the EU in the hope of securing a concession that will satisfy the Democratic Unionist Party, which props up the minority Tory Government.

And a number of ministers including Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, Commons Leader Andrea Leadsom, Health Secretary Matt Hancock and Transport Secretary Chris Grayling want a major increase in no-deal planning ahead of a possible ‘managed no-deal’.

Miss Mordaunt last night suggested she would back a ‘managed no-deal’, in which the UK would offer to pay £20billion in return for a 21-month transition period to give time to negotiate a looser trade arrangement.

Mrs May yesterday ruled out a second Brexit referendum, saying it would do ‘irreparable damage’ to Britain, fuelling divisions. However, Miss Rudd earlier suggested the Government should keep open the possibility of a second referendum.

She said ‘all options’ should remain on the table if the deal is voted down. EU officials will unveil the full extent of the plan to limit the damage of a ‘cliff-edge’ Brexit tomorrow. Brexiteers could seize on it as evidence the bloc is prepared to accept a ‘managed no-deal’.

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.
