Jacob Rees-Mogg declares
WAR on David Davis: Tory lambasts 'damage limitation' of Brexit policy!
TOP Brexiteer Jacob
Rees-Mogg has turned on the government in a blistering attack as he accused
them of failing to seize the opportunities presented by Brexit. Mr Rees-Mogg, the
leader of the Tory Brexiteer European Research Group, accused the government of
having resigned itself to Brexit being negative for Britain. He lambasted a
strategy of "damage limitation" as he pushed for a positive attitude
towards the post-Brexit possibilities for Britain.

The Somerset MP
told the Telegraph: "The Government's tone on Brexit needs to
fundamentally change."If Brexit's opportunities are taken off the table
then Brexit becomes only a damage limitation exercise. “The British people did
not vote for that. They didn't vote for management of decline." It comes
after Mr Rees-Mogg warned Brexit Secretary David Davis Britain risks being
turned into a “vassal state” of the EU in a post-Brexit transition
period.
In a heated exchange, the senior Tory MP told Mr Davis the UK should cut
ties with the bloc on leaving, rather than accept a further two years of
Brussels primacy in a transition period. Mr Rees-Mogg
claimed the arrangement would effectively prolong Britain's EU membership by
leaving the country within the jurisdiction of the EU Court of Justice and
signed up to Brussels rules and regulations.
The Tory MP told Mr
Davis: "Be honest about it,that we are de facto staying in for another two
years. Who is going to punish us if we get on with it now? "Aren't we just
still acting as if we are in the European Union? We're bound by the European
Union; we are lackeys of the European Union. "Can't we be a bit bolder and
implement the referendum result?”
He criticised the
acceptance of a transition period as "a big move away fro the vote in June
2016". Theresa May originally referred to an "implementation
period", which would involve regulations gradually falling away, instead
of the transition period, which will entirely replicate the conditions of EU
membership. Mr Davis vowed Britain would be "free of all these
fetters" of the European Union by the end of the transition period in
2021.
