Can my …..." Jonathan Djanogly - View Speech
"In his very strong statement, my right hon. Friend rightly spoke about the need for western unity.

Gentleman is saying, but I should point out that at the start of the negotiations, it was the EU, and specifically the French, who insisted that we separate the leaving deal from the future deal. They are therefore now being a …..." Jonathan Djanogly - View Speech
