“If we go on like this, we will be fired...The only way to avert that outcome is to honour the result of the 2016 referendum, and come out of the EU...to join every other independent country in being able to set our own tariffs and make our own laws” https://t.co/QjhGiwQ0ZJ — PolitiTweet.org

With GATT XXIV we can keep current arrangements with an “interim agreement” which need be little more than an agreement to continue talks. If @Conservatives do not deliver, we will not be listened to on anything and will cease to exist as a political force https://t.co/H35Vq9Lynh — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Clear lesson from these results. The Withdrawal Agreement is dead as the @Conservatives were the only Party promoting it. The UK must now leave the EU by 31st October, ideally with an FTA agreed in principle but, if necessary on WTO terms with practical side deals already agreed. https://t.co/UaayHjQQEy — PolitiTweet.org

More perspectives from France. Nice to see the Dog Party poster! https://t.co/35ks8RyhS0 — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting perspective on Brexit and Frexit from France. “The votes by referendum against the EU Constitution in 2005 in France and the Netherlands...were finally ignored. The history of the EU is characterised by a disdain for democracy” https://t.co/TDru5X20Yj — PolitiTweet.org

“There can be no “compromise” on the fundamental question of whether we are leaving the EU. The result of the 2016 referendum was sanctified by an act of parliament...it is not within the bounds of logical possibility to eliminate the option of “no deal”” https://t.co/w2bsjISokr — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

“The more straightforward basis for a future relationship is to say, “We are getting out completely, and we want to do a normal trade deal, such as Tusk offered in March 2018, please. If you do not like it, we shall leave with no deal on 31 October.”” https://t.co/ncSNkYFio7 — PolitiTweet.org

“We have to deliver our departure from the EU at the latest by 31 October...The leader must lead, not seek to follow. They must put back on the table the simple truth that, as Article 50 implies, ultimately we must leave, deal or no deal.” https://t.co/hO92lft3q0 — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

My piece for @BrexitCentral. A new leader must say completely unequivocally that we leave on 31st October at the latest, whether or not we have a new deal. We must seek to negotiate a wide-ranging trade agreement but we must be prepared to go to WTO terms. https://t.co/H35Vq9Lynh — PolitiTweet.org

“The Soviets had reported killing a total of 2,710 humpback whales in the Southern Hemisphere. In fact, the country’s fleets had killed nearly 18 times that many, along with thousands of unreported whales of other species.” https://t.co/zjIiHMQN1q — PolitiTweet.org

“Millions of people are fed up with managerial politics. They do not want to be governed by dessicated technocrats...The present Prime Minister could never quite transcend that grimly reductive approach. The Conservatives now need to find someone who can.” https://t.co/IYCaG6KSMk — PolitiTweet.org

Fascinating piece in the @ShropshireStar on Eglantyne Jebb from Ellesmere, who founded @savechildrenuk 100 years ago this month. Many congratulations to the charity on their anniversary, and here's to another 100 years doing great work for disadvantaged children across the world. https://t.co/HhbKbzsmFR — PolitiTweet.org

Great to meet @BarberCouncil and @hairbarbcouncil highlighting the economic contribution of the hair and beauty sector. It employs over 300,000 people across the UK, adding £6.6 billion to the economy. https://t.co/ZZq8YzUTa3 — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

My piece for the @Telegraph. The Cabinet must bear responsibility for the Government’s failures. Only a new leader and a new Cabinet can repair the trust which the Prime Minister has so completely eroded. https://t.co/jHof8aNFzP — PolitiTweet.org

At PMQs, I asked @theresa_may for an assurance that prosecuting authorities, within existing law, will not bring forward fresh proceedings against veterans of Operation Banner unless there is compelling fresh evidence and absolute certainty that a fair trial could take place. https://t.co/R2HO9vRa1I — PolitiTweet.org

At @NIOgov Questions this morning, I asked the Secretary of State what effect there would be on the morale of and recruitment to @PoliceServiceNI and other security forces should veterans of Operation Banner be treated differently from veterans of other operations and theatres. https://t.co/TMSfHa4zOc — PolitiTweet.org

I spoke to @BBCNews about the Prime Minister’s speech in which she managed to make the bad Withdrawal Agreement worse. I will be voting against the Bill. If and when it is defeated, we need a new PM and Cabinet determined to leave the EU by 31st October at the latest. https://t.co/CzzryV0fHk — PolitiTweet.org

If and when it is defeated, we need a new PM and Cabinet determined to deliver a genuine Brexit by 31st October at the latest. https://t.co/o0JJDPSTXz — PolitiTweet.org

I said 2 weeks ago "The only promise the PM has still to break is her opposition to a 2nd referendum. Given her record, who would now bet against another “pivot” in that direction?" I will definitely not be supporting WAB, a direct insult to 17.4m people. https://t.co/G05k7lpF1x — PolitiTweet.org

Good to meet Prof Simon Pearson @LIATLincoln and @ProfSBlackmore to discuss the introduction of robotic technology to agri-food industries, increasing productivity, improving quality, reducing dependency on migrant labour and providing significant environmental gains. https://t.co/xKxmK5rTcT — PolitiTweet.org

Great to meet Gunner from @TherapyDogsUK with @DWP Minister @JustinTomlinson.

Congrats CEO Reid Steel @Simonboyd3Boyd investing £20m designing & manufacturing specialist UK steel products. 70% turnover are exports to growth markets in S America, Africa & Asia while Euro market stagnates under rampant protectionism and the uneven playing field. @theresa_may https://t.co/6RnrNMh6Ta — PolitiTweet.org
