WATCH: Remember when Gove promised UK would “hold all the cards” after Brexit?

He went on to claim that no "responsible government" would trigger Article 50 without an agreement of sorts in place with the EU as to the shape of any future trading relationship.

Britain is close to abandoning trade talks with Brussels, pushing the country closer to cutting ties with the EU without securing any sort of trade deal.

With the UK set to willingly cut itself adrift, it’s worth remembering what voters were promised by Vote Leave back in 2016. In a speech in Westminster before the referendum, Michael Gove promised that Britain would “hold all the cards” after we leave.

He went on to claim that no “responsible government” would trigger Article 50 without an agreement of sorts in place with the EU as to the shape of any future trading relationship. Theresa May would soon set the clock ticking by doing just that.

This is what we were promised. Four years later, we’re getting something entirely different.

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.
