Cabinet Ministers take note. “If the Withdrawal Agreement is not ratified by Friday 29 March, a “no-deal” scenario may occur on 12 April. The EU has prepared for this scenario and has remained united throughout its preparations.” https://t.co/8CrC2JHINw — PolitiTweet.org

"It is a toxic sell-out of this country for vast expense with only years of painful wrangling with the EU on offer, before we end up in a position where people we don’t know in Brussels can make laws for virtually every sector of our economy...It's serfdom"https://t.co/b2KsQ8jwoA — PolitiTweet.org

“An extension...automatically makes the UK liable to pay into the EU budget for the extended period, and it is unconstitutional to incur such a financial liability without a vote by the House of Commons” https://t.co/hrpLKsamI6 — PolitiTweet.org

“MPs voted overwhelmingly to trigger Article 50, and therefore to leave the EU on March 29 – this coming Friday. It is a scandal that we are not in fact doing so...We are not leaving this Friday because the government has chickened out.” https://t.co/39iiTWD7Jv — PolitiTweet.org

“A smart WTO Brexit with well-designed trade, immigration, agricultural, fishing and regulatory policies would, far from being a ‘disaster’, have an excellent chance of delivering substantial long-term net benefits.” https://t.co/JEfrn8cl0C — PolitiTweet.org

“498 MPs, led by the front benches of Tory and Labour alike, voted, at second reading, to trigger Article 50. It...prescribes that we leave and that, if we cannot get the deal we want, we leave with no deal...We can leave on Friday, and we should.” https://t.co/xae7XH61PH — PolitiTweet.org

My piece for the @Telegraph on why an extension to Article 50 after the events at the @EUCouncil would be disastrously unwise. The UK must leave the EU on 29th March. https://t.co/NEcwRWIHRW — PolitiTweet.org

President @EmmanuelMacron confirms that the Withdrawal Agreement cannot be renegotiated and, if it is defeated, we would have no deal. The idea of “indicative votes” is pointless. — PolitiTweet.org

“There is no question that a WTO Brexit is perfectly manageable – and that in the event it occurred, more mini-deals would emerge to make it even smoother...Such a Brexit would save UK taxpayers at least £39 billion of payments to the EU” https://t.co/VcFw75eM7J — PolitiTweet.org

“Article XXIV of the General Agreement on Tariffs & Trade...provides a way of leaving the EU in a calm & orderly manner on March 29...Trade would continue...with exactly the same exemption from ‘tariffs, quotas, rules of origin & customs processes’ as now” https://t.co/9EG1yg36Td — PolitiTweet.org

“If the current Withdrawal Agreement is passed into law, the UK cannot unilaterally withdraw from the Agreement. The EU can keep us in forever...It is a sham negotiation by both sides: the EU has got exactly the Agreement it wants.” https://t.co/jJwKGr9srA — PolitiTweet.org

Helpful comments from @Barclays Chairman John McFarlane. "The EU and Eurozone appear as if they are becoming a "closed system" in financial services, while London has developed as global financial centre by being open." https://t.co/sCc1QJu6wI — PolitiTweet.org

My speech earlier on why an extension to Article 50 would be a huge mistake. It would completely renege on the promises that both main parties made at the last election and shatter trust in our democratic institutions. We should leave the EU as promised on the 29th March. https://t.co/r21E1XgQd0 — PolitiTweet.org

Given that @MichelBarnier has said the EU has finalised all but two of its "no deal" measures, I asked @chhcalling how many of its preparations the UK has still to complete. https://t.co/fYueDBBsrO — PolitiTweet.org

At today's Urgent Question, I asked @KwasiKwarteng what limits there would be on the penalties that the Arbitration Panel created by the Withdrawal Agreement could impose, and what the @HouseofCommons could do if it found them unacceptable. https://t.co/Fx1v1IGNp7 — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

“What is the so-called no-deal outcome? In effect, it is a deal: the complete opposite of the Government’s deal. Already lots of side deals are being made...and terms for trade would be upon the basis of the WTO which is how most world trade is done.” https://t.co/rT37GNaDup — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Solid advice from @MichelBarnier: “Voting against “no deal” does not prevent it from happening. Everyone should now finalise all preparations for a “no deal” scenario.” https://t.co/ehOcpakt1o — PolitiTweet.org

“If we vote for this deal, we will have locked ourselves in a prison with no voice and no exit. We will escape only with the permission of those whose authority we rejected.” https://t.co/XbrfKbIhr8 — PolitiTweet.org

“More competition results in a better allocation of capital and labour, and pushes firms to embrace new technology (because otherwise their rivals will)...The fewer employers in your chosen sector or local area, the lower the wages you’re likely to get.” https://t.co/qPm59kn8wm — PolitiTweet.org
