that people like liam fox and david jones were not co mforta ble liam fox and david jones were not comfortable with. now he has been brought back in line. it is not hard brexit if there is a transitional deal, is it? ratherthan brexit if there is a transitional deal, is it? rather than saying everything has to end on the 31st of march, this is saying that we can have a period, we can delay some of the impact of this so that we have more time to prepare for the practicalities of implementing, for example, customs controls?” practicalities of implementing, for example, customs controls? i suppose even for people like liam fox the realisation must have set in that a timetable in delivering this by march 2019, was absolutely unachievable, and the only thing that a group —— did would have achieved would be to cripple the uk economy. what we don't know from this letter is exactly what, how this letter is exactly what, how this is going to work. however they going to ensure, for instance, that there are still borders? how will we ensure that people are still going to be able to order goods onli

liam fox and easy as big big city and philip hammond the voice of caution in cabinet. now an apparent show of unity. reiterating that breaks it will mean leaving the single market that allows free trade and movement of people and leaving the customs union which sets eu wide import tariffs, writing a joint peace in the sunday telegraph the minister said the economy needs to stay strong through brexit. and that means business needs to have confidence, they say, there will not bea confidence, they say, there will not be a cliff edge when we leave the eu injust over 20 months‘ be a cliff edge when we leave the eu in just over 20 months‘ time. be a cliff edge when we leave the eu injust over 20 months‘ time. this is why the ministers continue, they believe a time—limited interim period will be important to further oui’ period will be important to further our national interest and give business greater certainty. it cannot be, they say, indefinite, it cannot be, they say, indefinite, it cannot be, they say, indefinite, it cannot be a back door to staying in the eu.

while the chancellor philip hammond wanted britain to stay in the eu, trade secretary liam fox has long believed in brexit, and in headlines over the summer, their disagreements over what should happen after britain leaves the eu in march 2019 have been clear. today, though, a united front. writing a joint peace in the sunday telegraph, they say there must not be a cliff edge break when britain leaves the eu in march 2019. they will seek a time—limited transition period with the eu, a victory for philip hammond. but, during this period, britain will leave the eu single market and the customs union, a win for mr fox. i think it is actually very encouraging because over the last three or four weeks we have seen conflicting signals sent out by various numbers of the cabinet, and now it does look as though someone has said to mr fox and mr hammond, we need to see unity. the customs union sets eu—wide import tariffs, the single market allows free trade and the movement of people. ministers say the uk can leave both, while still giving business confidence during our departure from the eu.

fox but liam fox was always nervous about any transition period, he has had to concede that is something the government has to pursue, so it is a trade—off. it is the critical question when talking about is we saw two important ministers setting out a position, something they hope will happen down the lights in negotiations but the rules of article 50 are clear, the timetable for these talks are largely in the eu's court, and michel barnier, the eu's court, and michel barnier, the eu negotiator, has been clear there can be no talk about the future relationship between britain and the eu until substantial progress has been made on the rights of eu citizen is here, the rights of uk citizens in eu countries, the northern ireland border and the settlement, how much money britain owes in terms of liabilities. the kenyan opposition leader raila odinga has given a defiant response to international calls for him to respect the results of last week's presidential election. at a rally in the capital nairobi, he urged his supporters to boycott work tomorrow. he said he would announce his full cou

that was an article jointly written by philip hammond and liam fox. the same subject, different spin in the observer front subject, different spin in the observerfront page subject, different spin in the observer front page this morning, david miliband, ed's brother, it says he makes a dramatic entry into the debate about britain's exit from the debate about britain's exit from the eu, calling for a second vote on the eu, calling for a second vote on the detail of the brexit deal. lots to talk about there i'm sure. the mail on sunday is leading on theresa may, saying she's going to head off a threat to sack her as prime minister by making a public plea to tory supporters to give her another chance, she will make a grovelling apology, they say, the conservative party conference will show her apologising for the loss at the general election. she will be apologising. a frantic week of ripping open envelopes and going into schools and colleges and checking online with exa m colleges and checking online with exam results coming up. the sunday times goes wi

fox ina whole new system just to keep liam fox in a job. there's no reason why they would do that. that is surely a little bit cynical, we have seen from that article you mentioned on the sunday jointly signed from that article you mentioned on the sundayjointly signed by philip hammond liam fox that they both accept the need for a transitional arrangement, they both accept the need for something that could run forup to need for something that could run for up to three years to help smooth the path for business so we do not suddenly have two direct customs barriers overnight. that is rather pragmatic and sensible? that is not by the chancellor has argued all summer by the chancellor has argued all summerand i'm not the by the chancellor has argued all summer and i'm not the only one baffled to see him sign up to an article on sunday that said that far from having a transition period that would guarantee our position in the single market of customs union, actually we would leave both of those things in march 200019. that blows a torpedo in t

writing in the sunday telegraph, philip hammond and liam fox confirm there will be a transition period to help businesses adjust — but it will only last for a limited period of time. their comments are being seen as an attempt to show unity between the rival sides on europe in theresa may's cabinet. earlier i spoke to our political correspondent jonathan blake, and i asked him if there was disunity in the cabinet. before the start of the summer break, with briefings from one side and the other, those who want brexit to happen as quickly as possible, like the international trade secretary, liam fox, and those pushing for a more cautious approach, led by philip hammond, so you have those two senior cabinet ministers writing this joint peace in the sunday telegraph this morning, attempting this show of unity, putting differences aside and saying, we agree on these things, at least, for now. and they have put a couple of issues to bed, chiefly, the idea of a transitional period so that when we wake up on the 31st of march 2019, when britain has formally left the european union, there won

while the chancellor philip hammond wanted britain to stay in the eu, trade secretary liam fox has long believed in brexit, and in headlines over the summer, their disagreements over what should happen after britain leaves the eu in march 2019 have been clear. today, though, a united front. writing a joint piece in the sunday telegraph, they say there must not be a cliff edge break when britain leaves the eu in march 2019. they will seek a time—limited transition period with the eu. a victory for philip hammond. but during this period, britain will leave the eu single market and the customs union. a win for mr fox. i think it is actually very encouraging because over the last three or four weeks we have seen conflicting signals sent out by various numbers of the cabinet, and now it does look as though someone has said to mr fox and mr hammond we need to see unity. the customs union sets eu—wide tariffs. the single market allows free trade and the movement of people. ministers say the uk can leave both while still giving business confidence during our departure from the eu. it sounds

, the tory party is riven with division —— liam fox. david davis called boris johnson division —— liam fox. david davis called borisjohnson a failure and there were tory mps threatening to kick each other in various pieces of anatomy. philip hammond repeatedly briefed against. anna super —— soubry now talking about leaving the party. it is easy for my position, someone party. it is easy for my position, someone who supports the labour party and it is for me to have a partisan enjoyment in the tories ripping themselves to shreds, but chris patten said the disastrous decisions have left the country in a terrible mess and already because we have the referendum to sage the internal divisions of the tory party, and we have the snap general election to destroy the labour party, but these internal divisions within the conservative party have left this country a laughing stock in europe and that is my fear, that we don't have a united government, we don't have a united government, we have a prime minister without authority and brexit ne

fox the formally disgraced liam fox i should i should add i mean he was pushed out of his post five years ago for the dark money dealings and links with some of the most sort of far right corporate elements in the us so the way breaks it plays out is something that i think it's very legitimate that we retain some democratic engagement with going forward whatever the final arrangement but just to just to repeat very briefly i do think there are very real questions about whether this was a legitimate referendum in the sense that democracy is always about choice by the people based on informed consent and there are very real questions on whether the information that people received in the main did inform them appropriately of what the actual situation. what was it of course except that there is uncertainty in terms of any projection going to just continue both wants to for one final response before we run out of time which is that given that people are feeling this need to have this public discourse and make these very open public statements does it suggest that the politicians aren't

a new alliance between liam fox and philip hammond. the new best friends. this is part of theresa may coming back from holiday and trying to get, so to speak, her dots in a i’ow to get, so to speak, her dots in a row and trying to get some sort of unity because they have literally been brexit stories every single day since she has been away and it has even made it into international news and it is showing real disunity so this is about tried to get purpose, focus, showing preparative —— prepared. britain had not done enough preparation and this has been hotly denied by david davis himself and it seems that the british government is going to publish in the coming ten days quite a few papers to put policy and real proposals on the table. quickly, to the independent which has done to different headlines abashed track legends bow out, mo farah and usain bolt but it did not go to plan so they went for britain winning gold in the relay, running to victory with the third fastest time in history. we were out in the newsroom. . . history. we were out in the ne

this would be in reaction to the conservative position which was put out by liam fox and philip hammond, saying that in the transitional period, the conservatives would want to leave by the customs union and the single market. that seems a strange position to take because presumably the transition period is intended as a buffer so that damage is not done during that period of exit. it relates specifically to the labour market and the customs union. so, labour have said, that makes no sense. obviously we will have a transitional period. at least the government has come to its senses on that, knowing that it is necessary and desirable. but as would look very different. it is a clear distinction between the two parties. it also says that labour have left the option open of staying in the single market and the customs union for good, long—term. that is dependent on brussels agreeing to that, which it is a big question. it also brings up the question of free movement, i don't know how you could remain in the single market without insisting on free movement. that is probably the reason that

writing in the sunday telegraph, philip hammond and liam fox confirm there will be a transition period to help businesses adjust. 0ur political reporter jonathan blake is in our half london newsroom for us. jonathan, what else does this article say? here we have two big piece in the cabinet representing different sides of the brexit debate coming together burying the hatchet and saying, we agreed and at least this much. liam fox and philip hammond happened a couple of issues to bedford now, saying that there will be a transition period. when we wake up on the 31st of march, 2019, having left the eu, there won't be that chaos or that cliff edge that many businesses are worrying about. there will be arrangements for travel and trade for a time limited period. they have also made clear that the transition will be time limited and it won't be away for the uk to stay in the eu by the back door. they are trying, i think, in the eu by the back door. they are trying, ithink, to in the eu by the back door. they are trying, i think, to reassure those people enthusiastic about brexit, who wanted

philip hammond and liam fox this weekend called for a time limited interim period for transition, but stressed they were agreed that during this period the uk will be outside the single market and outside the customs union. well, on the latest proposals there will indeed be a period of transition. and it will be time limited. but what the government seems to be saying is that we would leave the customs union, only to move to separate arrangement as similar to it as humanly possible. the big difference would be that the uk wants the right to start negotiating its own trade deals, even if it does not sign them — that could be contentious. we would be leaving the customs union only to stay as close to it as possible. firstly there is a legal problem. as long as you are part of or close to the eu customs union the rules don't let strike your own trade agreements. secondly a practical point, other countries like canada and new zealand that might do deals with the uk don't want to negotiate unless they know what the uk's future relationship with the eu will look like, and they will have t

but of course, about a week ago he and liam fox wrote an article for my newspaper, the daily telegraph, saying we have decided out means out. we will not be bowled by any treaties. so labour has moved into that ground, which has been vacated by the tories. continue the theme with the inside of the sun, page two. again, perhaps not surprisingly, critical of where keir starmer is now. and not unreasonably. reading the observer article, it was not the observer was at first remark reading the article, he is clear about this position. what he is not about is what that means the free movement. presumably if you are in the single market you retain that. which is something that will irritate a lot of voters. the other thing is thing is he is really not clear about what the future relationship with the eu will be. he mentions three times a future relationship which will be progressive, notjust relationship which will be progressive, not just about trade but science and things like that, which is superb but of course the tories have been a bit clearer. they say it is a free trade deal. he is not
