David Davis has been called to resign over lies about the Brexit impact assessments.

The Brexit Secretary was today forced to admit that the government has not assessed the impact of Brexit for different sections of economy to the EU select committee.

He said assessments across several industries were never carried out because “the range of different outcomes is too wide”.

But the revelations are in stark contrast to what he said in front of the same committee in December 2016.

On 14th December Davis said: “We are in the midst of carrying out about 57 sets of analysis, each has implications for individual parts of 85 per cent of the economy.

“Some of these are still to be concluded.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
