    Theresa May has told her departments that an extra £2billion is now available for no-deal Brexit. I thought nobody in parliament wanted no deal and Grieve's amendment made it unlikely that no deal would happen. KudosDave

    On the beeb they said that David Liddington is talking to leading Labour Remainers about a second referendum,am I correct that Liddington is effectively Theresa May’s deputy in her absence.
