Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, whether the view that no deal is better than a bad deal remains the Government's policy.

It is the Government’s position that the Withdrawal Agreement is a good deal for the UK.

Parliament has voted against no deal three times, and it is clear that there is no Parliamentary majority for leaving without a deal.

We will continue to prepare for all Brexit scenarios. A bad deal would be one which did not deliver on the referendum result, or did not allow the UK to take back control of our laws, money, and borders. The withdrawal agreement achieves all of this, ensuring a good deal for British businesses and citizens.
