Ministers agree to publish Brexit report if requested by MPs

Leaked studies on the economic impact of Brexit will be released if MPs back the move in a vote later.

No 10 said it would allow MPs and peers to see the report on a confidential basis if directed to do so.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-42884610

So the voters wouldn't get a look :hmmm:

What saves her is that the deeply divided party seem unable to agree on a better successor.

The Tories are ripping themselves apart slowly without some one coming forward to topple MayBot and steady the ship why? They are a divided party at war with itself to busy sniping and point scoring off each other to notice the cliff edge.

Pretty much like Labour actually.

Prominent Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg has accused Treasury officials of "fiddling the figures" on Brexit to keep the UK in the European Union customs union.

It comes amid claims, which the Treasury has denied, that it had deliberately created an economic model that made all other options look bad.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-42929071

Now it is the turn of the Treasury to take some flak....whose next? :hmmm:

^Talking about the Mogg I hear the man who who he had a scuffle with is a member of Momentum, why is Old Jezzer saying nothing? :hmmm:

LIVE: Tory splits 'prompt dream team plan'

The PM is reportedly facing a coup plot with MPs wanting Boris Johnson, Michael Gove and Jacob Rees-Mogg to take over.

KEY POINTS:

Tory MPs reportedly planning to put 'three Brexiteers' in charge
Senior backbencher urges PM to defy Chancellor



https://news.sky.com/story/live-tory...-plan-11236239

If true this is bad news for Maybot.

"The PM is reportedly facing a coup plot with MPs wanting Boris Johnson, Michael Gove and Jacob Rees-Mogg to take over."

Add Farage to that mix. Ask them all why they ran away, when they now want to grab power and take reponsibility for the brexit crash :hmmm:

I guess it's all still a power game, for them. Let May handle an impossible situation and see her fail, and then come back as the minister of Singapore on Thames and say "we would have done it better"?

STEED 02-04-18 06:16 AM

I don't believe its for real as you don't go around telling the press your plans. :doh:

Moonlight 02-04-18 08:49 AM

Those 3 buffoons leading a coup against Theresa May, she'll be wetting her knickers with laugher at the thought of that, and when and if that does happen their hopes of being declared the leader of the tory party will be dashed forever.
I'm no fan of Theresa May but she is the best the tory party have got at the moment so they should either put up or shut up.
