Setting out forthcoming MPs business, Rees-Mogg signalled that as negotiations currently stand, the Commons will rise for the Christmas recess this evening and return on January 4th. With characteristic Commons pantomime, Rees-Mogg signalled the government will recall MPs to pass any deal that may be struck with the EU in coming days:
“Should a deal be secured it is the government’s intention to request a recall in order that parliament may pass the necessary legislation”
Unsurprisingly, no Brexit clarity yet…
