A great honour to receive the Freedom of the City of London earlier this week. If I had any sheep, one day I might be able to drive them across London Bridge! An exciting prospect in these uncertain times. https://t.co/Lwwa9BupKl — PolitiTweet.org

Very good article. The implications for the economy of the Johnson Brexit deal followed by a hard Brexit Future Relationship don’t look good. Politicians should be honest about the trade-offs. — PolitiTweet.org

It was a clear promise. As @RobertBuckland said 'Parliament has a legitimate role to play'. I agree. Looks like the Conservative message is "we'll be out on WTO terms by 2021". I have to say - that is reckless. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

Interesting thread on whether the Implementation Period will be extended. If there's no extension of the IP (as No 10 seems to be saying), there's no chance of a Free Trade Agreement being negotiated in time. It means WTO terms by Jan 2021. A very bad outcome for many sectors. — PolitiTweet.org

After the Southampton-Leicester result tonight, reminded of going to Old Trafford in 1995 as an Ipswich Town supporter. Still convinced that one of Man Utd nine goals (I think it was the seventh?) should’ve been disallowed #JustSaying — PolitiTweet.org

Avoiding leaving the EU without a deal has always been my priority. That's why I voted to keep the insurance policy of the Benn Act alive but it is also why I'll vote for the PM's deal when there's a straight vote on it. I think the numbers are there for it to be approved. — PolitiTweet.org

That won’t be the end of the matter. There’s much work ahead. But it would be a big step forward if Parliament could back a deal in principle and then scrutinise the details. /END — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

But that is a matter Parliament can examine whilst scrutinising the Withdrawal Agreement Bill. I’ve been making the case for a long time that resolving Brexit was going to require compromise. Tomorrow I will back the PM’s compromise. I hope Parliament will back the deal. /4 — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

As an insurance policy, the Benn Act needs to stay in place. That’s why I’ll support the Letwin amendment. I have some concerns about the deal. Is there a risk that at the end of 2020 we find ourselves on WTO terms with the EU? That’s a very bad outcome. /3 — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

Any deal involves compromises. The PM deserves credit for being willing to compromise and get a deal. With the best will in the world and everyone acting in good faith, it will be very difficult to scrutinise and pass any legislation between now and 31 October. /2 — PolitiTweet.org
