The UK is a 'vassal state'- Rees Mogg and David Davis go to war over Brexit
European Union citizens are to be given the right to choose whether to stay in the United Kingdom for a period of around two years following its departure in 2019, as confirmed by a prominent Brexit official. It's Government policy to leave the Single Market and end free movement and this is directly against that commitment.
JPMorgan could move more than 4,000 jobs out of Britain if Brexit talks result in a divergence of regulations and trade agreements between Britain and the European Union, the US banking giant's chief executive said on Thursday.
Hammond later attempted to clarify his remarks saying he was clear Britain would be leaving the EU's customs union and single market next year.
The promotion of former Europe minister David Lidington to the heart of Downing Street as first secretary of state also alarmed MPs wary of Brexit being unravelled; and remarks by Philip Hammond at the world economic forum in Davos increased fears that the mood in government has shifted towards a softer Brexit.
Meanwhile, the DUP's Sammy Wilson accused the Irish Government of a "very public hissy fit"' in relation to Brexit negotiations.
"For too long our negotiators seemed to have been cowed by the European Union", he said.
"If there is a need it could update the negotiating directives but we have to bear in mind the statement of the leaders in December that the transition period will need to be clearly defined and limited in time", one European Union diplomat said.

"Britain can not negotiate with the USA or any country", warned EU Trade Commissioner Cecilia Malmstroem, the bloc's top trade official, also in Davos. 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 did not vote for the management of decline.
Speaking to a parliamentary committee, Davis said Britain's ties with the European Union would "look exactly the same" during what Britain hopes to be two years after Brexit to allow customs, businesses and politicians prepare for a new deal with the bloc.
The Labour MP Stephen Doughty of pro-EU campaign group Open Britain, said: "Theresa May is losing control of the Brexit process".
On Wednesday the trade minister Greg Hands insisted to a Commons select committee that talks between the Department for International Trade and non-EU countries convinced him that "none of the more than 70 nations with whom we have held discussions have any interest in disrupting trade flows or in erecting barriers to trade where none now exist".
First, on forging new security and defence partnerships without waiting for the transition to end; second, to update the directives depending on progress - a line that diplomats said meant that Britain would not necessarily be shoved off a "cliff edge" in 2021 if a new trade agreement was not ready; and third, that they might agree to let Britain sign new trade deals with others, despite being bound by European Union trade rules in the transition.
