With talk of a post-Brexit customs union, there is said to be an explosive cabinet meeting on the way.

It looks like the hardline Brexiteers of Boris Johnson, Michael Gove and Liam Fox will be going head to head with the Soft Brexit advocates of Philip Hammond, Amber Rudd and Greg Clark in a crunch cabinet meeting in the next few days, reports the Telegraph.

The face off will be over whether or not the UK goes into any form of customs union with the EU after Brexit Day on the 29th March 2019.

The hard Brexiteers want to ensure that we are outside of any form of union that would restrict the UK’s ability to strike deals on its own behalf, saying that it effectively keeps us locked into the EU anyway.

Whereas the customs union supporters, who I regard as Remainers for their continued attempts to keep the UK under the ECJ, say they want to limit the loss of trade with the EU, keep customs restrictions as low as possible and avoid a hard border in Ireland.

And now Anna Soubry and Ken Clark have tabled amendments to two key pieces of Brexit trade legislation that would keep the UK in the customs union if they were agreed by the house. And there is also speculation that the Labour party stance is turning towards the UK remaining in the customs union after Brexit Day says the Telegraph.
