Matthew
Pennycook MP, Shadow Brexit Minister
, responding to Liam
Fox’s comments to the House of Commons International Trade Committee, saying he is
“not afraid” of ending up with no deal, said:

“Liam
Fox’s comments expose the cavalier approach the Tories are taking to the Brexit
negotiations.

“Senior
Tories seem blind to the realities of what crashing out of Europe without an
agreement would mean. It would mean higher prices in the shops, longer queues
at the airport and potentially a significant risk for major parts of the economy. 

“Theresa
May should call out the fantasy Brexiteers in her own Cabinet and guarantee
that an agreement with Europe is reached.”
