Out of The Union and The Market
Probably the most important line in the manifesto - putting it in writing means chances of Parliament pushing back are basically zero https://t.co/1IibCueXqD— Rupert Harrison (@rbrharrison) May 18, 2017

Brexit Bill Between £5BN and £30BN
A study conducted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales looked at the “main components” of the likely bill for the UK when it leaves the EU in March 2019.
Taking into account rebates owed to the UK, EU spending commitments and other costs it came up with three “next exit charges”:
- a “low scenario” of £5billion,
- a “central scenario” of £15billion and
- a “high scenario” of £30billion.
Well then, plenty of wiggle room there!

David Davis Plans The Arguments Ahead
David Davis is looking ahead to Brexit negotiations and, having rejected the timetable proposed by Brussels, has drawn up a schedule of when he wants certain "arguments" to take place.
The result being that the first argument will be one about what to argue about!
What with the general election etc, a cynic might wonder if the government is trying to avoid Brexit negotiations.
Surely not!?
That aside, Davis did make one valid point; namely that there would be little progress in Brexit negotiations during the summer months, as it was the “least useful time in dealing with Brussels”.

Is David Davis Now Unsackable?
Brexit minister David Davis said that European Union leaders in Brussels were trying to get him sacked, after critical accounts of a meeting between British and EU negotiators were leaked to media.
As per Reuters:
“All these stories are briefing against me trying to get me sacked - which of course is a compliment.
If they don’t want me across the table, there is a reason for that – it is in Britain’s interests, not theirs.”
A cynic might suggest that this is an attempt by Davis to make himself unsackable....but only a cynic would think such things!
