However, the Government are fundamentally split on this issue, with many in Theresa May\u2019s party wanting to rip the UK out of Europe at any cost.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMinisters should put the national interest first and guarantee a deal that will protect jobs and the economy.\u201d<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.co.uk\/entry\/davids-davit-brexcit_uk_5a6a4ff5e4b0ddb658c4e06c\" class=\"autohyperlink\">www.huffingtonpost.co.uk\/entry\/davids-davit-brexcit_uk_5a6a4ff5e4b0ddb658c4e06c<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK Free To Strike Trade Deals During Brexit Transition, Claims David Davis Britain will be free to negotiate trade deals as soon as \u2018Brexit day\u2019 strikes, despite still having to follow EU rules, David Davis will insist on Friday.
