MPS clash in TV debate
BREXITERS were urged to “take the deal and get out” of the European Union as MPS clashed in a TV debate ahead of Tuesday’s crucial Commons vote.
Tory deputy chairman James Cleverly made the plea in support of Theresa May’s deal, arguing that it delivered on what people voted for.
But he was opposed by arch-brexiter Jacob Rees-mogg, Labour shadow cabinet minister Barry Gardiner and Green MP Caroline Lucas as they set out rival visions for the way ahead.
Channel 4’s Real Brexit Debate was aired after rival plans by the BBC and
ITV for a televised showdown involving Mrs May and Jeremy Corbyn fell through.
