Dominic Raab in Brussels for Brexit talks
She told BBC’s Newsnight: “It’s not just about stockpiling here, there are some products that can’t be stockpiled”.
“(It is) faithful to the referendum, making sure we’ve got frictionless trade with the continent and also freeing us up to more of that global worldwide trade we’ve talked about”, Raab told a parliamentary committee on Tuesday. The Department for Exiting the European Union will continue to lead on all of the government’s preparations for Brexit, including for any possible no deal exit, as well as passing all necessary legislation.
Mrs May said the responses to her Chequers plan for Brexit had been “constructive” so far and – taking questions from workers at engineering firm the Reece Group in Newcastle – the PM was asked how confident she was she could sell the blueprint to other European leaders.
The government’s “White Paper” on the future relationship published this month envisages the United Kingdom staying aligned to the EU’s rules on goods but not services and mirroring much of the bloc’s customs framework “as if in a combined customs territory”.
“Around 700,000 diagnostic tests every year in the NHS require medical radioisotopes but these have very short shelf-lives, they can’t be stockpiled and they aren’t manufactured here”.
Mr Hancock said: “We are working right across government to ensure that the health sector and the industry are prepared and that people’s health will be safeguarded in the event of a no-deal Brexit”.
“There must be a firm commitment in the withdrawal agreement requiring the framework for the future relationship to be translated into legal text as soon as possible”, Mr Raab told MPs.
The documentsays that while suspension of controls could be seen as sensible contingency planning – for example if there are any delays to imports of perishable foods at the UK’s borders – it could signal a “cavalier approach to public health” that in turn could threaten exports from the United Kingdom to the EU.
“The Prime Minister has made yet another catastrophic error and has lost the trust of majority of the British people”.
“It must seek to learn from voices in Northern Ireland”.
“A sensible technological solution is in the best interests of the whole British Isles”.
Mr Hammond added during a visit to the Bombardier aircraft factory in Belfast: ‘Large businesses who are importing or exporting large volumes of products or produce will be making contingency plans, and we would encourage them to do so and work closely with them as they are putting those plans together’. The political declaration is created to form the basis of full negotiations on a trade deal. They will be supporting the prime minster with me deputising for her in the negotiations.
“Both the USA and the European Union drop all Tariffs, Barriers and Subsidies!” And when prices tumbled, London-based traders and market makers with age-old relationships with the world’s biggest investors executed the largest volume of Italian government bond trading, McFarlane pointed out. They hope the United Kingdom government will gradually shift its red lines and opt to remain closer to the bloc.
