webfact Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Hard Brexit faction in UK PM May's party deny issuing threat over customs union British Conservative Party politician Jacob Rees-Mogg reacts during an interview with Reuters at his offices in the Houses of Parliament in London, Britain March 21, 2018. Picture taken March 21, 2018. REUTERS/Toby Melville LONDON (Reuters) - The leader of a faction in British Prime Minister Theresa May's Conservative party demanding a clean break from the European Union, has denied issuing an ultimatum after asking her to drop a proposal for a customs partnership with the bloc. A document prepared by the European Research Group, which is chaired by Jacob Rees-Mogg, said it would be "impossible" for Britain to strike meaningful trade deals under a customs partnership. "There is no question of there being an ultimatum, this is a paper that has been produced on a specific aspect of policy that would not work," Rees-Mogg told BBC radio. May's Brexit sub-committee, which helps set the direction of policy on leaving the bloc, meets on Wednesday to discuss narrowing down the position on a future customs arrangement with the EU to one of two options. A customs partnership is one of two proposed options that May's government has proposed on customs, and means Britain would continue to collect EU tariffs for goods which are headed for member states.

I don’t dispute what’s in your heart, it’s the cap doffing, forelock tugging and eagerness to play the groveling surf for such a shining example of an English ‘toff’ that amazes me. Unless these lifelong friends of yours are wealthy enough to be counted in the top 0.25% then Rees-Mogg is is not doing anything for them. He’s a paid up signed up member of the Tory elite, he’s looking after his chums. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM would not take any sh-t from brussels..that's why right now he would be a good PM for the UK imo Rees-Mogg’s agenda is avoiding taxes on the hyper wealthy, removing workers rights and dismantling the regulation of banks and the financial services sector. He relies on the support of cap doffers to this. He’s not going to do anything for you or your fiends other than strip out welfare, healthcare and all other forms of social protection.

Not at all - regardless on where you stood on the principle of EU membership, you were bombarded with lies and misinformation. So to say that the Rees Mogg scenario is what the country voted for is patent nonsense - nobody had a clue what we were voting for. Every one of us was sold a pig in a poke by people who were putting their own self interests first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
