Why does former Tory Cabinet minister Peter Lilley seem to be the only MP with a clear-headed view about how we can leave the EU?
He points out: ‘There is no point in negotiating a temporary transitional deal to be followed by a permanent deal.
A temporary deal will take as long to negotiate as a permanent deal.’ Is there a sinister reason for the Government’s foot-dragging?
