It’s your duty to back the PM, Liam Fox says in stinging rebuke to rebel Tories

Daily Mail  

Liam Fox will today issue a stinging rebuke to Tories who oppose the Prime Minister’s Brexit deal amid claims that as many as 100 of the party’s MPs could now vote against it. The latest developments came as: ■Mrs May launched a frantic bid to sell her Brexit deal to world leaders at the G20 summit in Argentina; ■Bank of England Governor Mark Carney warned that more than half of UK firms were completely unprepared for a no-deal Brexit; ■Security Minister Ben Wallace said quitting the EU without a deal would leave the UK more vulnerable to terrorist attack; ■The PM’s de-facto deputy David Lidington warned that a second Brexit referendum would run the risk of the ‘radicalisation’ of right wing voters in the UK; ■Environment Secretary Michael Gove revealed that French President Emmanuel Macron was ‘speechless with rage’ over post-Brexit fishing rights; ■Justine Greening claimed Britain could hold a new referendum by the end of May. Prime Minister Theresa May has a tough job ahead of her to get the Brexit deal through Parliament He said: ‘As an independent coastal state we will be able to decide who comes into our waters and on what terms.’ Mrs May will become the first British PM ever to visit Buenos Aires. But Downing Street said Mrs May would now use the meeting of leaders from the world’s biggest economies to stress the fact her deal would allow the UK to develop an ‘independent trade policy’.
