I've said it before, and I'll say it again - if the UK wants a good Brexit deal, then it must prepare fully for the no deal Brexit scenario.

Having advocated the need to prioritise the planning for exiting the EU without a deal, it's good to see the Sun editorial and the leader of the Tory MEPs saying exactly that.

The Sun Says starts off today by saying that, despite all the courtesy that our negotiating team have shown the EU, all we get back in return is aggression.

Pointing to threats to ground flights and do everything they can to break our banking system, trying to maintain control of our fishing all while setting up procedures to punish the UK at will during the transition phase, The Sun says:

"Compare all this aggression with the courtesy David Davis has shown Brussels.

"The desire for a “deep and special partnership” is entirely one-sided.

"Michel Barnier’s initial negotiating position is obviously unacceptable and a taste of the delaying tactics to come.

"Brussels will aim to prolong all talks until we take any deal in desperation to avoid leaving without one."

And it goes on to say that the Remain side will do their best to stir up panic and treat anything that promotes Brexit gloom as the gospel truth. So whatever we do, it says, we must have a no deal plan in place.

"There is a way out. Whatever strategy the Cabinet agrees today, we must get fully ready for a no-deal too.

"The Sun would much prefer a free trade agreement, but we MUST have a viable Plan B."

Personally, I would prefer that we treated the no-deal scenario as the Plan A option and then look at anything the EU came up with as Plan B - as their plan will always entail the UK giving up too much!

And writing in the Telegraph, the leader of the Conservative MEPs, Ashley Fox, says that to get a good deal out of the EU, we need to prepare seriously to leave without one.

And while the EU is intent on setting up a one-sided, one-way system to punish the UK for future transgressions, it turns out that the biggest rule breaker is in fact - Germany.

"Germany has been exposed as the top rule breaker in the European Union - even as it lectures other bloc members how to behave. It faces 74 infringement proceedings from Brussels for failing to adequately convert EU rules into German law." Reports the Express.

"The violations cover health and safety, including air pollution, traffic noise, fire protection measures and water quality."

Other topics include: eurozone stability rules, Germany and its position as the biggest EU rule violator, agriculture and seasonal workers, the Labour Party and Rebecca Long-Bailey, as well as Theresa May at Prime Minister's Questions with Sir Bill Cash.
