Sir Ivan Rogers says he delivered the warning to the PM in 2016 and that he was surprised by her negotiating red lines.

Sir Ivan said he had given the same assessment to Tory leadership contender Boris Johnson, who was foreign secretary from 2016 to 2018.after clashing with ministers over Brexit.

The backstop, an insurance policy designed to avoid a hard border on the island of Ireland, proved to be the most controversial element of the agreement.Opponents could not stomach it, and its continued presence in the withdrawal agreement sounded the death knell for Mrs May's premiership. The PM told her party's annual gathering that she would aim to strike a deal that would give the UK control of its borders, exiting the EU's single market and customs union.Sir Ivan said he did not get"any sight" of the speech in advance, despite seeing previous conference speeches.

Landmark domestic abuse bill to be introduced as Theresa May looks to add to legacyThe new statute would place a legal duty on councils to provide victims and their children with a secure home. An attempt to legalize domestic violence when women do it (women perpetrate about half of domestic violence, and male victims routinely get punished). It is the most sustained attack on victims of domestic abuse ever. It is sexist, illegal (contrary to Equality Act 2010) & evil. Legacy of excrement** So it takes until now then. Physical,emotional,sexual etc abuse was never acceptable anyway. Did the woman never have a look at safeguarding policy!!!!!!!
